A "data language", in this context, is a language for representing and validating data. I'm not clear on why it's called "Q", or why it calls marshalling/unmarshalling undressing/dressing. The language itself looks alright, it's dependently typed. It doesn't say anything about the speed of the existing JS/Ruby implementations.
- hgh 13y agoPerhaps the name is based off the R language (which came from S), a major data/stats language. Data representation comes before analysis, hence Q? Renaming marshaling, couldn't tell you.
