let floating
<programming> A program transformation used in {functional
programming} to implement full laziness. E.g. the function
f x = x + sqrt 4
can be expressed as
f x = let t = sqrt 4 in x + t
but note that t does not depend on the argument x so we can
automatically transform this to
t = sqrt 4
f x = x + t
Making t into a global constant which need only be evaluated
at most once, rather than every time f is called. The general
idea is to float each subexpression as far out (toward the
top level) as possible to maximise sharing.

Floating island
A floating island is a mass of floating aquatic plants, mud, and peat ranging in thickness from several centimeters to a few meters. Floating islands are a common natural phenomenon that are found in many parts of the world. They exist less commonly as an artificial phenomenon. Floating islands are generally found on marshlands, lakes, and similar wetland locations, and can be many hectares in size.
