The term "memoization" was coined by Donald Michie in 1968[5] and is derived from the Latin word "memorandum" ("to be remembered"), usually truncated as "memo" in the English language, and thus carries the meaning of "turning [the results of] a function into something to be remembered." While "memoization" might be confused with "memorization" (because they are etymological cognates), "memoization" has a specialized meaning in computing.
