;; First talk Speaker: Szymon Jachim Title: BAYSICK - an embedded Insane-specific Language for Scala implementing a subset of BASIC Abstract: Scala is considered as one of the candidates for the Next Big Language, while BASIC was the First Programming Language for many of us. This short talk will show you the implementation of BASIC as an internal DSL in Scala. While commercial usefulness of it is dubious, Baysick is a neat example of some of the interesting features of Scala and brings back childhood (8-bit) memories like madeleine cake in Proust's novel. ;; Second talk Speaker: Paul Richards Title: Functions all the way down - An introductory frolic with Church Encodings. |
