Quine
The term “Quine” refers to a special kind of Program (or shall I call Meta program?) that outputs its own complete source code as its only output. It is termed after the name of a philosopher Willard Van Orman Quine who did great study of indirect self references. There are certain distinct characteristics of what can be considered as Quine and what not.
