iconc 9.4.2-2.7ubuntu2 (powerpc binary) in ubuntu feisty
Ideal for both complex nonnumerical applications and for situations where
users need quick solutions with a minimum of programming effort, Icon is a
high-level, general purpose programming language with a syntax similar to
Pascal and C. Its applications include: rapid prototyping, analyzing
natural languages, generating computer programs, and artificial
intelligence. (From the back cover of the book "The Icon Programming
Language," by Griswold and Griswold.)
.
This package contains the Icon compiler. It generates programs that
generally run faster than those of the icont/iconx Icon interpreter. On the
other hand, the Icon compiler takes much longer to compile programs and is
more memory-hungry than the iconx/icont pair. As such, the compiler is
probably only useful to speed up the execution of large Icon programs once
they are fully developed and debugged.
