What is Seed7 FOR LINUX?

Seed7

Seed7 is a really cool programming language that packs a punch! Compared to Ada, C/C++, and Java, it’s described by its developers as more powerful and versatile. It can even take your programs and turn them into C apps, which are then compiled into machine code. With Seed7, you’ll find that functions with type parameters and type results look way nicer than what you get with generics or templates.

Key Features of Seed7

So, what makes Seed7 stand out? Well, it has some pretty awesome features! For starters, you can create your own operators and statements. It also supports object orientation—think multiple dispatch and interfaces. Debugging source code is a breeze too! Plus, it has strong typing support along with exception handling.

More Cool Stuff

You can overload procedures, statements, operators, and functions in Seed7. And guess what? It has a variety of predefined types like resizable arrays, bitsets, hashes, structs, time, color—you name it!

Working with Numbers

If you're into numbers (who isn’t?), Seed7 supports bigRational and bigInteger types. You can easily define generics and templates without any complicated syntax. It even comes with handy constructs like for-loops and arrays!

Portability Made Easy

An interesting thing about Seed7 is that it lets developers create programs that are portable right from the start—no need to tweak the source code at all!

Memory Management Simplified

Automatic memory management in Seed7 works out-of-the-box! You won’t have to worry about using a garbage collector here. This software also helps you catch errors when compiling your programs since there are no automatic casts involved thanks to static type checking.

Supported Platforms

You’ll be happy to know that Seed7 runs on any GNU/Linux operating system as well as various UNIX systems and Microsoft Windows OSes. Oh! And just so you know—the runtime library is shared under the LGPL license while the interpreter along with example programs can be downloaded under the GPL license.
