Abstract
A device obtains first program code that identifies a function, an input argument to which the function is to be applied when the first program code is executed, and a class identifier that identifies second program code that includes a set of routines. The set of routines includes a routine that identifies a manner in which a return value of the function is to be generated, when the first program code is executed. The second program code is stored separately from the first program code. The device executes the first program code, obtains the second program code based on executing the first program code, and executes the routine to generate the return value, based on the function, the input argument, and the class identifier. The device provides the return value.
