  Pike programming language - an introduction - Citizendium
Pike is an interpreted, general-purpose, high-level, cross-platform, dynamic programming language, with a syntax similar to that of C.
Programmers at Lysator in Linköping, Sweden, most notably Fredrik Hübinette and Per Hedbor, separated the language and virtual machine from the rest of the MUD driver, and used it as a rapid prototyping language for various applications.
Several Pike programmers have found their way to the Linköping office of Opera Software, where the language plays a central role in the server/gateway parts of the Opera Mini application.

  Programming language information - Search.com   (Site not responding. Last check: )
For instance, a programming language differs from natural languages in that natural languages are used for interaction between people, while programming languages are used for communication from people to machines (this rules out languages used for computer to computer interaction).
Functional languages often restrict names to denoting run-time computed values directly, instead of naming memory locations where values may be stored, and in some cases refuse to allow the value denoted by a name to be modified at all.
Programming languages are not error tolerant; however, the burden of recognizing and using the special vocabulary is reduced by help messages generated by the programming language implementation.

Pike scripts are similar to CGI scripts in the way that an end user interacts with them, however there are several significant differences.
First, Pike Scripts are run within the server context, without having to start a new external program.
Second, because the scripts run as part of the server program, they have the same permission as the user that Caudium is running as (except when configured to run the scripts as the user).

 Notes on Programming in C
Although many people think programs should look like the Algol-68 report (and some systems even require you to edit programs in that style), a clear program is not made any clearer by such presentation, and a bad program is only made laughable.
A classic example of this is parsing tables, which encode the grammar of a programming language in a form interpretable by a fixed, fairly simple piece of code.
One of the reasons data-driven programs are not common, at least among beginners, is the tyranny of Pascal.
