Greetings to all,
I'm a big fan of category theory, but doesn't it seem strange
that after all this time
there is no programming language that let's you organize things around
categorical ideas?
I've semi-seriously tried to find out about this (
http://physics.bu.edu/~youssef/aldor/aldor.html )
but I basically don't have an answer. I'd be very interested to hear if
anyone
is working in this direction or comments about why this hasn't happened.
