D is a systems programming language. Its focus is on combining the
|
|
power and high performance of C and C++ with the programmer
|
|
productivity of modern languages like Ruby and Python. Special
|
|
attention is given to the needs of quality assurance, documentation,
|
|
management, portability and reliability.
|
|
|
|
The D language is statically typed and compiles directly to machine
|
|
code. It's multiparadigm, supporting many programming styles:
|
|
imperative, object oriented, and metaprogramming. It's a member of
|
|
the C syntax family, and its appearance is very similar to that of
|
|
C++.
|
|
|
|
It is not governed by a corporate agenda or any overarching theory
|
|
of programming. The needs and contributions of the D programming
|
|
community form the direction it goes.
