In computer programming, "Voodoo", or "Magic" refers to techniques that are secret or not widely known, and may be deliberately kept secret. The Jargon File makes a distinction between "deep magic", which refers to code based on esoteric theoretical knowledge; "black magic" (voodoo), which refers to code based on techniques that appear to work but which lack a theoretical explanation; and "heavy wizardry", which refers to code based on obscure or undocumented intricacies of particular hardware or software.
