punt
     
        (From the punch line of an old joke referring to American
        football: "Drop back 15 yards and punt!") 1. To give up,
        typically without any intention of retrying.  "Let's punt the
        movie tonight."  "I was going to hack all night to get this
        feature in, but I decided to punt" may mean that you've
        decided not to stay up all night, and may also mean you're not
        ever even going to put in the feature.
     
        2. More specifically, to give up on figuring out what the
        {Right Thing} is and resort to an inefficient hack.
     
        3. A design decision to defer solving a problem, typically
        because one cannot define what is desirable sufficiently well
        to frame an algorithmic solution.  "No way to know what the
        right form to dump the graph in is - we'll punt that for
        now."
     
        4. To hand a tricky implementation problem off to some other
        section of the design.  "It's too hard to get the compiler to
        do that; let's punt to the run-time system."
     
        [{Jargon File}]
