The Mirah LanguageMirah is a new language from Charles Nutter, the developer of JRuby. He describes it thus:
I think Mirah is a bit too new to make a front-page post. It is interesting and also puzzling in that it doesn't really define a semantics. E.g. “roughly similar scripts could conceivably compile to any number of type systems and runtimes. In this sense, Mirah is more of a rough coupling of Ruby-like syntax with a pluggable type-inference and compilation pipeline.” Can you actually claim you've created a language if the semantics of the language aren't specified? I'm not sure whether to file this under interesting or quackers. By Noel at 2010-07-23 11:16 | LtU Forum | previous forum topic | next forum topic | other blogs | 15448 reads
