Algoid is an educational programming language developed around 2012, by Yann Caron a student of computer science at CNAM, (Conservatoire national des arts et métiers at Paris)

Features

Algoid is an educational language that allows the student to use different paradigms:

  • Imperative
  • Procedural
  • Functional
  • Recursive
  • Object-oriented (multi-inheritance)
  • Aspect-oriented programming.

    • It leads onto programming in industry standard language (such as C, Java and C++) and its syntax as close as possible to their respective syntaxes. It implements powerful idioms like meta-object protocol (from python) and cascade (from smalltalk).

    To do this, the fundamental principles of Algoid are :

  • A function is an expression.
  • An object is an expression.
  • An expression is an object.
  • -So a function is a meta-function and an object is a meta-object.
