I happened to stumble on a link to this somewhere on reddit. This seems to be a new programming language with an interesting central idea: you provide sample inputs and outputs, and the system figures out the program you're looking for. [1] It looks like a paper with more information was published just this past November [2] but the language itself is not publicly available yet. PLT is not my forte - I'm curious to know what HN thinks!
