D Programming Language

Archived on: Development, Informatica - Packo at 10:30 pm on Sunday, February 17, 2008

Some time ago I read about this language which I quite liked the approach. I will put an excerpt from the Wikipedia but I strongly recommend that you read you the full article:

D is a programming language developed for general use by Walter Bright whose first version appeared in 1995, the result of decades of research and experience of skilled programmers in many languages.
It is of a higher level than C + +, but retains the ability to write code for high performance and interconnect directly with the APIs of an operating system or hardware. In addition behaves well with large-scale programs with a million lines, which develop teams of programmers.
D is easy to learn, provides many functions to help the programmer, and plays well with the technology of aggressive compiler optimization. It is a compiled language, not interpreted. Is a language that is practical for programmers who need to get a job completed quickly, with a code easy to understand.
[...]
  • Automatic memory management (garbage collection)
  • Delegates, nested functions and roles verbatim
  • Operator overloading and properties without burdening the programmer
  • Structuring: modules and packages
  • Properties
  • Generic programming much improved
  • Programming contracts
  • Reliability and maintainability
  • Conditional compilation without dirty preprocessors
  • Compatibility with C without pay C
  • Associative arrays
