It's not traditional MUMPS, but it adds things like macros, error handling, sane variable scope, regular expressions and so on.

- pseale 13y agoWould you actually recommend anyone learn MUMPS for any reason besides job reasons?
- tommmmmm 13y agoI wouldn't. It's not a terrible language to work with on the job, but I don't think I've gotten anything out of it in the same way that I did from learning OCaml or Lisp.
- quink 13y agoDitto, there's not a whole lot of innovation of ideas in MUMPS at all. It's just a random programming language that's good enough to get things done with and the database that's next to it is nicer than most and supports both NoSQL and SQL. Spend the time on learning Python, JavaScript and SQL I'd say :P
