Beskrivning

This text is aimed at programmers who are already familiar with such languages as PASCAL and C, but who have no knowledge of object-oriented languages. It introduces the concept of object-oriented languages, comparing Dylan to such other languages as CLOS, Smalltalk and C++. The author examines the fundamental concepts of the Dylan language before moving on to present the basic types (Boolean, vectors, strings). Variables, expressions and assignment, and functions (both named and anonymous) are covered in detail. The Dylan class is introduced in its simple form and generic functions and library classes are discussed in depth.
