Metaprogramming is the writing of programs that write or manipulate other programs (or themselves) as their data or that do part of the work that is otherwise done at compile time during runtime. In many cases, this allows programmers to get more done in the same amount of time as they would take to write all the code manually.
The language in which the metaprogram is written is called the metalanguage. The language of the programs that are manipulated is called the object-language. The capacity of a programming language to be its own meta-language is called reflexivity.
A simple example of a metaprogram is this bash script, which is an example of generative programming:
