I thought it was supposed to be Oberon-2 with some Limbo, C, etc touches. That's part of how it becomes my slam dunk against C in anther discussion. ;)

- pjmlp 10y agoIf you read the Inferno programming guide, you will see how much the languages resemble themselves. Major differences are that Limbo uses a VM based runtime with dynamic loading and Abstract Data Types. But your approach is also good, still Oberon had some issues that were eventually improved in Oberon-2 that Go lacks. On the other hand Oberon-07 is even more bare bones than Go.
- pvg 10y agoMost languages resemble themselves very strongly.
- nickpsecurity 10y agoI only glanced at Limbo. I'll have to take a more detailed look at it. Inferno was definitely interesting. It was even ported to Android to replace Java runtime by people at Sandia.
