Precomputation is the generation of lookup tables to improve the speed of algorithms. It is common in computation-heavy areas such as 3D graphics and cryptography. Lookup tables may represent a cache of recently computed values. Alternatively, lookup tables can include all possible or all expected inputs for a computationally intensive function.
