This looks pretty awesome. Stephen Wolfram demos the Wolfram Language, a "knowledge-based programming" language "30 years in the making." Built on "a small set of powerful principles" such as "coherence, maximum automation, scalability, and parallelism," the goal with the Wolfram Language was to "encapsulate as much computational knowledge as possible so people can go from ideas to deployed products as quickly and easily as possible." And yet, despite being "a huge language, by far the largest ever," it seems to be "uniquely good as a first programming language because you can do so much so easily, and quickly get exposed to such a broad range of methods and topics." I've been thinking about learning Rails as my first language, but this seems quite fun and powerful.

@jakobson219 Жыл бұрын

I am stunned that a brilliant man like Stephen Wolfram, who doesn't hesitate to plug Wolfram Language at any opportunity, doesn't realize that its lack of popularity is due to its closed, pay-for-use model. Until it becomes open source it will only be used in institutions that force their students to use Mathematica. Once students graduate they quickly realize that there are free, portable ways of programming (such as Python) that don't lock them into a proprietary system of uncertain future.

Amazing, I always liked Mathematica, because it is symbolic and for its design. I used it on PCs, but I believe that it was designed to run in NeXT computers., and that this new language is an old promise of Wolfram ;) . .the first idea (If I remember well..) was a new language based on cellular automata, or something like that... again.. it is amazing!
