Pike Programming Language

Pike is an object-oriented, dynamic and fast programming language with a syntax that looks a lot like C++ on the surface. It includes a powerful modules system that, for instance, has image manipulation, database connectivity, and advanced cryptography. It is simple to learn for people who know other C-derived languages and does not require long compilation passes. Pike is statically typed with required, explicit type definitions like the languages it is derived from, but it deals with types much more flexibly. There is a mixed type that can hold any type, or you can have a type declaration like
  int|float x; 
meaning that x can contain either an integer or floating point value. Pike has several useful builtin datatypes, including arrays, mappings and multisets. Pike also supports first class and anonymous functions. The implementation of Pike is free software.
