 +====== TAV-PL ======
 +
 +In the last decade, I have specified and implemented an unusual programming language that fits my personal taste.
 +
 +**I am currently revising the language in order to publish the source code, so some details will change.**
 +
 +There is a [[http://rclab.de/TAV-Online/TAVPL-Tutorial.html|Tutorial]] (also as {{:tavpl:tavpl-tutorial.pdf|PDF}})  and a [[http://rclab.de/TAV-Online/TAVPL.html| Language Description]] (also as {{:tavpl:tavpl.pdf|PDF}}), 
 +plus a simple [[http://rclab.de/TAV-Online/|TAV-PL playground]] to test small programs online (including more elaborate examples not in the tutorial).
 +
 +TAV-PL is a precompiler for the C programming language, thus it is fairly easy to port the compiler — written in TAV-PL — to most computers.
 +
 +The differences and highlights are:
 +
 +   * C precompiler, should work on any system with a reasonable C compiler
 +   * Block structuring by indentation, like in //Python//; line oriented
 +   * No keywords in the core language, only symbols and bigraphs
 +   * Variables are of any kind (type) dynamically; no declarations
 +   * Function definition and calls by word sequences with interspersed parameters, often no parenthesis needed
 +   * Maps (dictionaries) with all kinds of keys (except floating-point numbers)
 +   * Rows (arrays) if the keys are close integers, dynamically expanding
 +   * Arbitrary precision integer numbers 
 +   * Dynamic UTF strings
 +   * Fields for extra data in rows and maps
 +   * Attributes for information about an item (object)
 +   * Fault items for reliable error handling
 +   * Basic support for object-oriented programming (no inheritance)
 +   * Discretionary type system specified, but not yet tested
 +
 +The source code for the compiler, runtime system and library will be available as open source, if there is sufficient interest in it.
 +
