from Part II - From Theory to Practice
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 July 2019
In this chapter we introduce the C(M) language, a new programming language. C(M) statements and expressions closely resemble the notation commonly used for the presentation of formal constructions in a Tarskian style set theoretical language. The usual set theoretic objects such as sets, functions, relations, tuples etc. are naturally integrated in the language. In contrast to imperative languages such as C or Java, C(M) is a functional declarative programming language. C(M) has many similarities with Haskell but makes use of the standard mathematical notation like SETL. The C(M) compiler translates a well-formed C(M) program into efficient C code, which can be executed after compilation. Since it is easy to read C(M) programs, a pseudo-code description becomes obsolete.
