CharityLanguage
Last edit January 29, 2009
A programming language based on
CategoryTheory
.
CharityLanguage
isn't
TuringComplete
, because it lacks general recursion, but it's very expressive. Recursion is based on induction over data-types and is defined formally as the
FoldFunction
for such data-type.
Innovative organization: based on theory of strong categorical datatypes divided into 2 subclasses: inductive (built up by constructors in the familiar way), and coinductive (broken down by destructors).
All Charity computations terminate (up to user input).
