Caml Special Light was a further complete rewrite that added a powerful module system to the core language. It was augmented with an object-oriented programming (object) layer to become Objective Caml, eventually renamed OCaml.
The Pascal-P4 compiler–interpreter can still be run and compiled on systems compatible with original Pascal (as can Pascal-P2). However, it only accepts a subset of the Pascal language. Pascal-P5, created outside the Zürich group, accepts the full Pascal language and includes ISO 7185 compatibility.
Some naming conventions represent rules or requirements that go beyond the requirements of a specific project or problem domain, and instead reflect a greater overarching set of principles defined by the software architecture, underlying programming language or other kind of cross-project methodology.
The second most commonly used notation is [1] x := expr (originally ALGOL 1958, popularised by Pascal). [2] Many other notations are also in use. In some languages, the symbol used is regarded as an operator (meaning that the assignment statement as a whole returns a value). Other languages define assignment as a statement (meaning that it ...
The Computer Language Benchmarks Game site warns against over-generalizing from benchmark data, but contains a large number of micro-benchmarks of reader-contributed code snippets, with an interface that generates various charts and tables comparing specific programming languages and types of tests.
^a Pascal requires "forward;" for forward declarations. ^b Eiffel allows the specification of an application's root class and feature. ^c In Fortran, function/subroutine parameters are called arguments (since PARAMETER is a language keyword); the CALL keyword is required for subroutines.
This comparison of programming languages compares how object-oriented programming languages such as C++, Java, Smalltalk, Object Pascal, Perl, Python, and others manipulate data structures. Object construction and destruction
Modern programming languages use symbols to represent concepts and/or data and are, therefore, examples of symbolic languages. [1] Some programming languages (such as Lisp and Mathematica) make it easy to represent higher-level abstractions as expressions in the language, enabling symbolic programming. [2] [3]
