Limbo programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (168 words) |
 | Limbo is a programming language for writing distributed systems and is the language used to write applications for the Inferno operating system. |
| The Limbo compiler generates architecture-independent object code which is then interpreted by the Dis virtual machine or compiled just before runtime to improve performance. |
| Limbo's approach to concurrency was inspired by Hoare's Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP). |
| Programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (2161 words) |
| Few languages ever become sufficiently popular that they are used by more than a few people, but professional programmers are likely to use dozens of different languages during their career. |
| For instance, a programming language differs from natural languages in that natural languages are used for interaction between people, while programming languages are used for communication from people to machines (this rules out languages used for computer to computer interaction). |
| Programming languages are not error tolerant; however, the burden of recognizing and using the special vocabulary is reduced by help messages generated by the programming language implementation. |
