In object-oriented programming, "immutable interface" is a pattern for designing an immutable object. The immutable interface pattern involves defining...

early incarnations of object storage were used for archiving, as implementations were optimized for data services like immutability, not performance. EMC...

Passing such immutable objects between variables have no observable differences if the object is copied or passed by reference, unless the object identity...
