- frutiger 2y agoIsn’t it actually a Standard ML and C/C++ hybrid? The window dressing is C/C++ sure, but the lack of statements, semicolons, the presence of enums, etc are quite reminiscent of SML.
- kibwen 2y agoSML is definitely the next biggest influence, but it's an SML frosting on top of a C-family base.
