The Pliant programming language, created by Hubert Tonneau, is based on a dynamic compiler, which makes it act like it is interpreted. The default syntax is almost trivial, and based on indentation, so it is an off-side rule language. It is reflective: Pliant programs can modify the parser, compiler, code generator, and the code optimizer. Pliant's core advantage is its ability to allow several levels of programming, from low-level instruction lists, to high-level expression manipulation. Thus, it stresses the "compiling rules" ...

Bikram Yoga was developed by Bikram Choudhury. He claims that his method is the only true hatha yoga practiced in the West. This claim is not accepted by many other schools. Bikram has designed a sequence of 26 yoga postures (or asana) and 2 breathing exercises that are performed in a heated room. The postures are vigorous and demand a lot from the students. The heated room, typically set around 95 - 105 degrees fahrenheit (35 - 40 degrees celsius) makes muscles more pliant and encourages sweating which acts as a purifier. The sweating also acts a ...

The way popularized by C programming language is to ignore whitespace and mark blocks between curly braces { and }. An advantage of this is that program code can be automatically reformatted and neatly indented without fear of the block structure changing. A disadvantage is that a human reader of the code pays attention to indentation and might miss the formal meaning that is communicated with braces. A variation of the curly braces is the Pascal convention of starting blocks with keyword begin and ending them with end. LISP doesn't differentiate statements from ...

Scripting language - Job control languages and shells. Main article: Shell script A major class of scripting languages has grown out of the automation of job control -- starting and controlling the behavior of system programs. Many of these languages' interpreters double as command-line interfaces, such as the Unix shell or the MS-DOS COMMAND.COM. Others, such as AppleScript, add scripting capability to computing environments lacking a command-line interface. AppleScript ARexx (Amiga Rexx) bash csh JCL< ...

A language supporting reflection provides a number of features available at runtime that would otherwise be very obscure or impossible to accomplish in a lower-level language. Some of these features are the abilities to: Discover and modify source code constructions (such as code blocks, classes, methods, protocols, etc.) as first-class objects at runtime. Convert a string matching the symbolic name of a class or function into a reference to or invocation of that class or function. Evaluate a s ...

The following is an example in Java. Consider two pieces of code // Without reflection Foo foo = new Foo (); foo.hello (); // With reflection Class cl = Class.forName ("Foo"); Method method = cl.getMethod ("hello", null); method.invoke (cl.newInstance (), null); Both code fragments create an instance of a class 'Foo' and call its 'hello' method. The difference is that, in the first fragment, the names of the class and method are hard-coded; it is not possible to use a class of another name. In the second frag ...

Computer languages are created for varying purposes and tasks — different kinds and styles of programming. One common programming task is known as scripting, or connecting diverse pre-existing components to accomplish a new related task. Those languages which are suited to scripting are typically called scripting languages. Many languages for this purpose have common properties: they favor rapid development over efficiency of execution; they are often implemented with interpreters rather than compilers; and they are strong at communication w ...
