Brady Forrest (O'Reilly Media, Inc.), Alex Payne (BankSimple)

New programming languages are born all the time. Some languages are created to tackle new problems. Some languages are evidence proofs towards a better way of programming. Some are created just for fun or to scratch an itch. The Emerging Languages Camp is a gathering of the creators of recent programming languages, their peers, colleagues, interested programmers, technologists, and journalists. Read more.

Average rating:

(5.00, 5 ratings)

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.
