Looks interesting. * Uses a module system * Built-in arrays are value types. * Python like slice syntx a[lo:hi] * immutable strings * switch has no break. Use "fallthrough" to fallthrough. * Nested functions * First class tuples ( a,b = func(), a,b=b,a ) * := for assignment * Uses "var" to declare variables (this was chapmpioned by some here instead of auto) * varible type comes after declaration and is optional * return type of functions comes after parameters * No Windows port yet. That's going to be a bit of a roadblock to widespread adoption. * Iota!? * ...
