templatized

C++ code that is written with template parameters. In particular, allows data types and software algorithms to be easily changed.

// power() is templatized by P and T
template<int P, typename T>
T power(int a)
{

T val = 1;

for (int i=0; i<P; i++)

val = val * val;

return val;
}

templatize

To take something, usually a piece of communication, and create a template out of it that allows one to replace elements of the communication to change the message. For a banner advertisement, for instance, swapping out headlines or images to communicate something else.

"The client really likes these accolades banners you did. Can we 'templatize' them to accommodate other accolades as they come up?"

Templative

Comprised of templates, particularly in a metaphorical sense.

I find that subculture tediously templative; desperately clinging to prefab social masks because they’re terrified of the shrieking void within.
