The term is not specific to programming: expressing things which have
been expressed already.
Human language needs it, as we may not grasp the meaning at first time,
also repeating contributs to sense sometimes.
WRT to programming: for example two or more functions taking the same
kind of arguments, producing the same result but are named differently
and reside at different places in code.
Given these code is designed to be processed at same time and location,
that would be redundant.
Pertains to all kind of definitions.
