Helper function
A helper function is a function which groups parts of computation by assigning descriptive names and allowing for the reuse of the computations.1 Although not all wrappers are helper functions, all helper functions are wrappers, and a notable use of helper functions—grouping frequently utilized operations—is in dynamic binary translation, in which helper functions of a particular architecture are used in translation of instructions from one instruction set into another.2
