Description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Span is a
programming language targeting the Parrot virtual machine. Its syntax is
meant to be very similar to C, but its philosophy is Smalltalk-like, and
it uses Smalltalk-style message syntax. Almost all of Span's library
visible to the user is written in Span itself. A programming language is
an artificial language designed to express computations that can be
performed by a machine, particularly a computer. Programming languages
can be used to create programs that control the behavior of a machine,
to express algorithms precisely, or as a mode of human communication.
