| | Palm: Software Development - Alternatives to C |
 | | I consider Java to be a much superior language (and I'm glad I leapfrogged having to deal with C++!) and also give high marks to various declarative programming languages such as Prolog, Mercury, Haskell, etc. and to scripting languages such as Python, Ruby, Lua, etc. |
 | | LaFac (which stands for "LAnguage FACtory") is a language implementation that uses a common byte-code ("p-code") to provide an implementation platform for four different programming languages: micro-pascal, micro-c, micro-basic, and a weird language called HELP that's similar in some ways to FALSE. |
 | | Programs written in Palm Tcl are generally an order of magnitude shorter than their C equivalents and can be written in a fraction of the time. |
