About.
Automated Unit & Integration tests / pl: zautomatyzowane testy jednostkowe i integracyjne / are not proofs, but these are practical as well - reducing bugfixing costs extremely significiantly at a very small price. There are more benefits to using Automated Tests, for example Mental Harness of Unit & Integration Tests enables one to proceed more boldly, faster, thinking on higher abstraction levels without worryig about minor bugs, relying on tests to handle that. These also can use Invariants.
In the 'Causal Programming Paradigm', each of state changes, as well as methods entrances, having control within, and control leaving can cause conditions appearance, existence, and disappearance event notifications. Methods' leave events contain return values, if applicable.
In the 'Causal Programming Paradigm', causes appearances and disappearances can cause event notifications.
How automated tests are perfomed in this paradigm, then?
1. Test registers for neccessary event notifications,
2. Test runs a method to be tested - which can contain one or many objects/methods.
3. Test gets report of the events raised and analyzes their types, order of appearance and state.
4. Test returns a value - either true or false, which says whether it was success or failure.

Correctness.
Introduction.
Proving code's correctness / pl: dowodzenie poprawności kodu / can be done, but is very difficult & expensive so far.
Depending on purpose, code's correctness proofs are neccessary / for example: the nuclear reactor's software, airplane controls /, or not / for example: a non-commercial webpage /.
In reality, automated tests are enough for many applications, and proofs are used only in mission - critical software parts, because of the costs measured in programmers' work time and in other resources.
Too often even the simple automated tests are omitted in programmers' work - as customers mistakenly think that it costs less to just pay for bugfixing, than to pay for quality. But customers often lack knowledge neccessary to check code's quality, so they prefer to not pay for quality, while expecting it still.
Causal Proofs.
... i think that with coming of the 'Causal Programming Paradigm', proving code's correctness might become easier, automated testing as well.
With this paradigm, software analysis will be similar to observing a space - play, a play of causes & conditions.
Computation is calculation with side effects, depending on hardware & software, machines can compute either well or not so well.
In the Causal Programming Paradigm, cause's result appears when cause appears and conditions exist for long enough after cause's appearance.
Program's result is achieving certain results - either once, or continually, over a given time.
Idea of algorithm's correctness proof, therefore, is proving that a proper cause will appear, and proper conditions will exist for long enough, in a given timeframe.
See also, if You wish: Causes & Conditions.
Concurrency & Real Time.
Timeframe can be counted either using Real Time Clock, in case of Realtime programming languages, or defined as 'within brackets' of causes, countercauses, conditions and counterconditions appearance, existence or disappearance - in case of programming languages without Realtime mechanisms, as for example: 'Ola' Programming Language.
In a Nonrealtime Concurrent Systems, Real Time Clock can be used as well, but not so precisely.
Concurrency is not the same as Realtime Support Mechanisms, and considering either or both is not a small cost when proving program's correctness. In simpler words: Nonrealtime Concurrent Systems are faster usually than Realtime Concurrent Systems, but lack the Hard Pessimistic Time Constraints - often work faster, but occasionally are too slow. Realtime systems, when written correctly, do not fail at all - but are slower on average.
Nonrealtime Concurrent Systems are also cheaper and easier in making than Realtime Concurrent Systems, and market niche for these languages is much larger. People do not need expensive and over-ambitious solutions for most of simpler tasks, afterall.
Both the Realtime Concurrent Systems, as well as the Nonrealtime Concurrent Systems can work in Real Time, can have user interface that affect their behaviour. The 'Starcraft 2' Computer Game by Blizzard Entertainment is an example of the Nonrealtime Concurrent Program masterpiece - it works smooth and fast, but occassinally 'hiccups' - slows down for a while. Being a Nonrealtime Program it's much cheaper, and is faster on average.
'Starcraft 2' is the game of the 'RTS' - 'Real Time Strategy' Computer Games Genre, as it works in Real Time, Concurrently coordinating software parts. By the Computer Sciences Linguistics it is not a Realtime System, however, as it doesn't adhere to Pessimistic Time Contraints of the Realtime Systems. There's the difference between Computer Science's 'Realtime' meaning and the Common Sense's 'Real Time' meaning. The RTS Computer Game Genre illustrate this difference well enough, i think.
Quality & Professional Practices.
In formal proofs of program's correctness, minimalism is important too, code should have as little of side-effects as possible - only desired ones, if possible - as unwanted side effects, causes & conditions, can complicate proofs or interfere with results.
'The less code the better', SOLID, DRY / 'Don't repeat yourself' / & other ideas are important when considering 'Code Quality Metrics'.

The 'Causal Programming Paradigm'.
Programming Paradigm is the way of thinking about programming, there are many programming paradigms, both lesser and greater.
Greatest Programming Paradigms are:
- Object Oriented Paradigm,
- Functional Programming Paradigm,
- Programming in Logic.
Programming Languages offer more or less support for programming with paradigms. Java, for example, offers support for Object Oriented & Functional Paradigms. Prolog, for example, offers support for Programming in Logic.
The Object Oriented Paradigm is a great tool for handling large-scale, complex software projects.
The Object Oriented Paradigm was meant to enable people to think about programming in a more abstract way than in the imperative programming, was an attempt to emulate a way of 'how mind works'.
i wish to build on Object Oriented Programming, to make programming even more alike to 'how mind works'.
i wish to create 'Causal Programming Paradigm' / pl: 'paradygmat programowania przyczynowego' /.
... it's both textual and visuospatial method, as one should be able to model objects graph using 3D modelling tools, then fill with code, or just write a code in a purely textual way. Visual Programming can transform to a purely textual code, elegant even - using the automated tools, anyway.
'Ola' Programming Language with its 'Token Game' semantics & nice syntax should enable the 'Causal Programming Paradigm', in a simple, easy, and cost-efficient way. Other important & useful programming paradigms should be supported, as well.
Software created with 'Causal Programming Paradigm' should react to events of causes and conditions appearing, existing and disappearing.
i think it's possible to use 'Causal Programming Paradigm' in the most of modern Programming Languages - at varying costs, however.
Causal Programming Paradigm should keep all of the tools of Object Oriented Paradigm.
i think Causal Modelling, Causal Analysis and Causal Design should also appear with time, as complementaries to Causal Programming Paradigm.

'Ola' Programming Language.
There's a lot of programming Languages on market, why create new?
Why not settle for just a programming library in one of succesful programming language products?
Just as a handyman needs lot of tools, different types of screwdrivers & other, different programming languages fill different niches.
Every programming language has it's niche, does some things better, some worse.
Some things are done cheaper, some more expensively, some can't be done at all.
Programming Languages have advantage over libraries that they offer simple notation, nice syntax - so coding is easier, cheaper, faster.
Programming Languages offer paradigms, thinking patterns, and idioms - good programming practices.
... what's inside a programming language, it's inner mechanisms affect what can be done at what cost when using it - affect it's meaning.
... this blog's author is creating a programming languge as well: 'Ola' Programming Language, a 4th Generation Programming Language / 4GL /.
Formerly know as 'Ola AH', we've changed name of this programming language from to 'Ola'.
-=- ... she looks similar to a Buddhist woman i Love, with whom i meditated in a Buddhist Center. -=-
-=- ... perhaps this logo will be changed, or perhaps this logo will stay. -=-
-=- Red Flowers. -=-
-=- ... for a Buddhist woman i Love. -=-
This initial draft, while worthwhile start and a source of ideas to consider - should be far from complete design. More ideas should follow, less important ideas should be removed, and - most significiantly - quantum informatics and perhaps quantum physics should be included in language's semantics. This should affect niches & syntax of 'Ola' Programming Language significiantly.
-=- Ada Lovelace. -=-
-=- Author of the first computer algorithm. -=-
-=- One of the Programming Languages was created and named after her.
-=- Examples of systems where Ada is used include avionics, railways, banking, military and space technology. -=-

Token Game.
About.
Originally 'Token Game' is a board game, an educational board game related with petri nets - rare and precious, at least in some circles.
... in a context of this blog, 'Token Game' is a theory, software modelling & construction methodology.
... it's the most ambitious theory in Project Wraithstar, from the Advanced Mathematical Computer Sciences perspective.
... inspired by abstracted Petri Nets, concretized different way, taking advantage of object orientation, can be used to model causes & conditions quite efficiently.
Software built using the Token Game / pl: gra w żetony / should react to events of causes and conditions appearing, existing and disappearing.
it has uses in esoteric, visuospatial programming / pl: ezoteryczne, programowanie wzrokowo - przestrzenne /, with modelling objects graphs in 3D then filling them with code. Objects graph is a model of a program, can be run.
Design goals for Token Game is to be very easy to use, but offer a great paradigm to work with, great idioms set.
There's focus on seeing more, thinking more, typing less.
... fitting 'a complete code part' on a 'single screen' can make easier overview, simplifies thinking, increases code quality, as i learned when i studied on MIMUW - Warsaw Univesity, ZSI Informatics Faculty.
There's support for concurrency mechanisms & typed data flow, built-in.
... see also, if You need or wish: Befunge, esoteric programming language, visuospatial - at least in a way, i think.
Petri Nets Conference.
- i participated as well, when i studied at MIMUW, Computer Sciences, when i worked at XPro sp. z.o.o. -
- i got a few of free days from work, and sponsoring from Michał Kłeczek, XPro's owner. -
- this conference set karma in motion, i think ... deeply inspiring, even if i barely understood. -

Invariants.
Intro Poem.
'Welcome to the informational age
We're enjoy the world of technology
Never felt this modern world could emerge
Magical world with braveness and courage.'
-- See also, if You wish: 'Welcome' on Hello Poetry.
Computer Sciences.
Invariants are cornerstone of Mathematically Proving Algorithm's Correctness.
Automated Unit & Integration tests / pl: zautomatyzowane testy jednostkowe i integracyjne / are not proofs, but these are practical as well - reducing bugfixing costs extremely significiantly at a very small price. There are more benefits to using Automated Tests, for example Mental Harness of Unit & Integration Tests enables one to proceed more boldly, faster, thinking on higher abstraction levels without worryig about minor bugs, relying on tests to handle that. These also can use Invariants.
Invariant / pl: niezmiennik / is a holy word in this Project, important part of Advanced Mathematical Computer Science.
Invariant is something that holds, in observable moments.
Example 1: during method's m1 execution variable's v1 value is never less than 0.
Example 2: during method's m1 execution, conditions: Co1, Co2 and Co8 hold.
Example 3: during a given timeframe T1 cause Ca1 appears.
Example 4: after entering method m1, before reaching code line n, a cause Ca1 appears and conditions Co3 and Co5 hold.
See also, if You wish: Causes & Conditions.
That are examples of invariants.
Preconditions / pl: warunki wstępne / and Postconditions / pl: warunki końcowe / are also examples of Invariants, there are method and class-level Invariants / pl: niezmienniki na poziomie metody i klasy / - for details, consult Object Oriented Programming & Invariant Theory.
Invariants can be used in forming the Software Contracts.
Buddha & Love.
There are Invariants of Love as well, should be fought for keeping and restoring when these fail.
Otherwise Love would fall apart.
Should Invariants of Love hold only in Observable Moments?
Good Question, but there's Buddhist Awareness / Consciousness Theory that explains that Consciousness is composed of a serie of discrete Awareness Moments, with delays in-between.
... it's something worthwhile to think & meditate on, i think.
... in Buddhism, we are not bodies - we are Mind. Mind has body, and surpassess death, Reincarnating after death in a new body.
... There's 'ego barrier' as well.
... it's a part of Karma, the Timeless Law of Cause & Effect, Causal Science.

Causes & Conditions.
A definition.
What's the difference between cause and condition / pl: przyczyna i warunek / in Buddhism?
A cause is a discrete event which occurs before a result.
A condition is not discrete, it is continuous, and must remain true in order for things to arise in dependence upon it.
An appearance of a result of a cause, can be a cause.
A continuous serie of causes appearing without any gap in a serie of observable moments can be seen as a condition.
A condition can also be a cause. / for example: a condition Co1 holding during whole timeframe T1 causes Ca1 to appear /.
A cause can also make condition(s) to appear for a given time. / for example: 'i wish for gravity to cease in my room for 1 second.' - perhaps it's not so impossible as the Science advances, but consequences would still be terrible anyway. ;) /.
Usually we do not know when karma ripens, when cause's effect realizes, becomes a part of our reality.
Causes can create, support or abolish conditions, can counter other causes as well.
... there are more of nuances in the Causes Science, as well.
An example.
If I drop an apple, there are a mixture of causes and conditions relating to the apple falling.
Causes include me picking up the apple, me letting go of the apple, and so forth.
Conditions include the existence of gravity, the lack of any physical obstruction underneath the apple, the apple having mass.
Some of those conditions are very slow to change, and some are not. When the apple hits the ground, the condition of there being no obstruction underneath it will cease, and so the freefall of the apple will cease due to a dependent condition ceasing.

- precondition: warunek wstępny; warunek początkowy,
- postcondition: warunek końcowy,
- invariant: niezmiennik,
- neccessary condition: warunek konieczny,
- sufficient condition: warunek wystarczający, warunek dostateczny,
- conditions hold: warunki utrzymują się w mocy,
- conditions satisfied: warunki spełnione,
- conditions evaluate to truth: warunki wyliczają się do prawdy,
- observable moment: obserwowalny moment.
... see also if You wish or need: 'Necessity and sufficiency on Wikipedia'.
... is it glossary or a dictionary? / an english-polish dictionary /.
WARNING.
... unfortunately, there are people who abuse words of science.
... does science want 'priority queues' to be excuse leading to abusing someone, certain group(s), etc.?
... what's true purpose of 'simple queue systems' architecture? / en: 'simple queue systems' = pl: 'proste systemy kolejkowe'. /
... what's connection between 'completion phase' of meditation and satisfied conditions? / in a polish language, 'completion phase' is 'faza spełniająca'. /
Causes & Computer Science.
When a cause appears, or disappears, originates or ceases - an event should be raised, so other software part(s) can be notified.
Cause's ripening can be conditioned.
... for example, a wish: 'i wish to clean my room tomorrow' translates to a cause for cleaning room, with condition that this must occur in a given timeframe.
When conditions for this cause's ripening hold in a given timeframe, this cause ripens in a given timeframe.
When conditions for this cause's ripening do not hold in a given timeframe, this cause is purified, and is never realized.
Conditions & Computer Science.
In Computer Sciences, in Object Oriented Programming, objects consist of:
- state, variables' values,
- methods.
But i think it's useful to add conditions, as a part of object's state - as worthwhile to empahize.
Conditions have boolean values - are either true or false.
Conditions are affected by variables' state changes, so code that maintains condition's state should be in the appropriate accessor method(s).
When variable's state changes, and condition's state changes from false to true, condition origination event is raised.
When condition's state is true, condition holds. Otherwise it does not hold at this moment.
When variable's state changes, and condition's state changes from true to false, condition cessation event is raised.
There can also be conditions for a method entrance, for control being within a method, and for method leaving - on the processors/cores or/and a processess/threads levels.
Method's leave events should contain method's return value in their state - unless method does not return any value. In this case this information should be a part of method's leave event's state.
Interdependence.
'if this exists, that exists; if this ceases to exist, that also ceases to exist'.
Emptiness.
'Whatever arises dependently
Is explained as empty.
Thus dependent attribution
Is the middle way.
Since there is nothing whatever
That is not dependently existent,
For that reason there is nothing
Whatsoever that is not empty.

'if this exists, that exists; if this ceases to exist, that also ceases to exist'.
Emptiness.
'Whatever arises dependently
Is explained as empty.
Thus dependent attribution
Is the middle way.
Since there is nothing whatever
That is not dependently existent,
For that reason there is nothing
Whatsoever that is not empty.

Karma: the Law of Cause and Effect.
Intro Poem.
'A Kindness
Why I lift you up-
Someone, unknown, lifted me-
Karma moves forward-'
-- Source: 'A Kindness' on Poetry Soup.
Quote.
'Karma (Tib. Ley): action.
The law of cause and effect, through which one experiences the world in accordance with the impressions stored in mind.
These impressions were created through one's actions of body, speech and mind.
This means that beings decide their own future with their present actions.'
-- Quoted from 'Buddha & Love' book by Lama Ole Nydahl.
Commentary.
Study of Karma is important part of Buddhism, as is investigation of the causes of happiness and suffering.
Cause and Effect law is a very vast study field, causes can be found and addressed to everything - from love to physics, economics, weather, esoterics, and more.
Certain events such as stock market crash or weather change have the vast amount of causes - so this study is extremely complex endeavour.
This study involves both root causes as well as intermediary causes.
Not only causes are needed for certain phenomena to arise and hold, there are more permanent conditions as well.
With time reality changes, conditions crumble and rise, causes appear and disappear - so there's the difference between the Timeless Karma Science and Conditioned Karma Study.
Strict sciences based on the Timeless Karma Science are very deep and solid, however - effects of applying such sciences are very infailible and can last for a very long time, considering one's Reincarnation as well.
The Causal Love Science.
... for those interrested in the Causal Love Study, i think there is abstract / focusing on root causes & on high abstraction level, without too many of details / book - 'Buddha & Love' by Lama Ole Nydahl.
Words in this book might seem detached from reality to those who read and do not know Buddhism, but these work - often after many years of waiting, fight and work.
Lama Ole Nydahl studied Philosophy, so can think abstractly, and provide abstract, far reaching solutions even that many do not see whole chain of cause and effect at first. In my opinion this book is far more than good wishes, positive vibes and good impressions - even that it includes these as well.
Philosophy means 'Love of Wisdom', it's Wise book about Love & Buddism.
When someone really cares for Enlightened Love, he or she should certainly try it in my opinion.
Lama Ole Nydahl succeeded and succeeds in Love, many others who follow him as well - even if this seems hopeless at first, even if it's long and difficult fight.
The root causes are provided as well as guidance how to live, then intermediate causes & results appear as well.
Topics in this book include not only wishing for / creating that way / causes of Love, but also 'how partnership succeeds', forging bonds, 'purifying karma that causes pain', and much more.
There are abstract explainations of important Buddhist concepts as well, as for example 'Four Immeasurables'. In my opinion thse shuld be analyzed, experimented with and included in one's view and practice.
i recommend.

Intro.
Intro Poem.
'Aspirations are free
But don’t get stuck on the mere possibility
Yea, anyone can dream
But so few wanna take responsibility'
-- See also, if You wish: 'Aspirations Are Free' by Fixedonsuccess on Allpoetry.
Project title's meaning.
'Spooky action at a distance'.
'Upiorne oddziaływanie na odległość'.
... Einstein spoke about 'Spooky Action at a Distance'.
Wraiths / pl: 'Upiory' / are spooky.
So, the title: 'Project Wraithstar' is a form of a tribute to A. Einstein & other great Scientists, not all of them well known.
... it's related with Advanced, Modern Physics: Quantum Physics & Quantum Entanglement Phenomena.
... for a more, check this Wikipedia article.
Also, word: 'Wraith' makes me think of J.R.R. Tolkien's Ringwraiths / pl: 'Upiory Pierścienia' /, Nazgûlzs. Hence, a tribute to the Literary Arts as well, not only to the Sciences.
Modern Sciences and Quantum Computing.
Modern Science is far more Advanced than most of Society can imagine, i think.
Computer Sciences are important, Quantum Computers are important as well ... i've read that Quantum Computers are built to model 'Quantum Reality', so are well-suited to answer Quantum Physics needs. While there are successes and uses, while limited versions were constructed already and still serve science efficiently - Quantum Computers didn't reach 'The Critical Breakthrough Milestone' yet ...
About.
Project Wraithstar / pl: projekt upiorna gwiazda / is about Advanced Science & Technology composed of Advanced Mathematical Computer Sciences, Advanced Mathematics, Advanced Physics & Scientific Nanotechnology mostly, as well as of few other Sciences including Electronics to a lesser degree.
... which of the Art Styles i should include?
... initially i aim for impressionism for colours and feelings, art deco & cubism for geometic shapes and bright colours of vivid voxel graphics, also early barocco with it's simplicity, and gothic romanticism - related with Ada Lovelace, first computer programmer and daughter of Lord Byron, the romantic poet.
... but perhaps this will expand or change in future.
... i imagine this will amount to a style of the 'joyful dystopian feelings'.
it's Buddhist, Esoteric, Artful & Scientific Project in making.
Based on the Law of Cause & Effect, including Scientific Causes & Conditions Theory.
Design goals for this blog are to focus on Theoretical Science far more than on Practical Technology - but still include it significiantly.
Since youth i wished to code with professional quality, with indents & professional practices, to speak using minimalistic, simple, clear and elegant, casual / pl: potoczny / and causal / pl: przyczynowy / english language. When i studied at Warsaw Uniwersity, it was important for me - and Warsaw University has people that care for this, for beautiful & professional computer sciences language, as well. i wish to be one of them.
> [ Polish - English - Polish: a Dictionary ].
Project Wraithstar should use these wishes and a Beautiful Art with Style that makes one think of Futuristic Technological Advantage, Nuomenal Science, Dreams, Energies, Night & Starlight, Spectral Cosmic Wraiths of Unknown Space, of flowers and more.
Buddhism, Occult & Esoterics should be part of this blog, but used in non-cheap, beautiful, deep, spiritual, well-refined and very subtle ways. Scientific parts of Buddhism & Esoterics, as for example Causes & Conditions Theory, as well as Numerology do not have to be so subtle, however. Occult is the Spiritual Science, as well, and more. Esoterics is spiritual paths other than Buddhism in my case, of both rise and fall. i have a darker side, but i believe in Spiritual Ascent more than in fall, however.
i don't know when i am ready to continue writing this blog, for now i lack in Arts, as well as in Advanced Mathematics, Advanced Physics and Advanced Mathematical Computer Science apparati. Without these Nanotechnology of course is just a dream.
While i am not a materialist, technology & science will be for sale probably - probably most of it not for myself. i wish to earn in nondirect way, probably using courses & tutorials, Science & Technology is for Lama Ole Nydahl & for a Buddhist woman i Love.
i think Marketing effort will benefit from Art, but that won't be goal for Art & Style. it's a way of expression, i am Artist & Scientist, Buddhist & Esoteric afterall.
At this stage this blog is just idea & design.
... feel free to meditate for this project, including on ways to benefit from it for yourself, me & others.
Dear Lama Ole, i hope You accept this gift - for as many lives as it's Enlightening - offer stands even after death - Lama Ole Nydahl can accept it in this and/or in next lives. The same with a Buddhist woman i Love - she can accept in this and/or in future lives.
... i hope these articles will be worth of blogs, of a chalk & board, someday.
☸
Lama Ole Nydahl's 80th birthday will be on 19 march 2021.
He was born on 19 march 1941.
(to be continued in future, probably after i earn Masters Degree in Mathematics on Warsaw University - after i meet a Buddhist woman i Love again).
