Algoid (programming language) explained

Algoid is an educational programming language developed around 2012, by Yann Caron a student of computer science at CNAM, (Conservatoire national des arts et métiers at Paris) ^[1]

Features

Algoid is an educational language that allows the student to use different paradigms:

• Imperative

• Procedural

• Functional

• Recursive

• Object-oriented (multi-inheritance)

• Aspect-oriented programming.

It leads onto programming in industry standard language (such as C, Java and C++) and its syntax as close as possible to their respective syntaxes. It implements powerful idioms like meta-object protocol (from python) and cascade (from smalltalk).^[1] To do this, the fundamental principles of Algoid are:

• A function is an expression.
• An object is an expression.
• An expression is an object.
• So a function is a meta-function and an object is a meta-object.^[1]
