Frink
Frink is a practical programming language and calculating tool designed to make physical calculations simple. It tracks units of measure through all calculations, ensuring that answers are correct. Back-of-the-envelope calculations become trivial, and more complex physical and engineering calculations become simpler to write and read, and allow transparent use of any units of measure.
Frink is also a full-fledged programming language that can perform
symbolic mathematics, solve systems of equations, process text, do object-oriented programming, perform date/time mathematics, do interval arithmetic, interface with Java programs, and generally make your life easier and make you look smarter.People planning to attend this session also want to see:

Alan’s presentation was the absolute funniest while not lacking the least in technical content. I look forward to learning more about Frink.
It was great. Much better than “Cats”. I’m going to see it again and again.
