The Unicon Programming Language
¶ The Unicon Programming Language¶ Unicon, Unified extended Icon, by Clinton Jeffery, Shamim Mohamed, Jafar Al Gharaibeh, Ray Pereda, Robert Parlett, and team. PDF available at UniconProgramming.pdf Icon, an iconoclastic programming language.
Although Unicon allows variable use without declaration, explicit control over local, global and static scope is always preferred and can avoid unintended name resolution behaviours. Unicon classes are quite simple and yet complex; circular inheritance is supported ( although not overly recommended unless programming routines dealing with things like the wave/particle duality in quantum physics theories). Icon includes a rich set of datatypes and operators, generators, goal directed evaluation with implicit backtracking, text scanning, integrated graphics, and other complementary very high level features.
