Dyalect programming language
Dyalect is a dynamic programming language for .NET platform. It is lightweight, fast and modern. Dyalect (or Dy for short) supports Windows, MacOS and Linux.
Dy runs on the top of its own high performance virtual machine. It compiles fast and can be used as an embeddable language or as a scripting language of your choice. It is also a good language to learn programming.
Dyalect offers modern syntax, inspired by such languages as C#, Swift, Go and Rust, first class functions, coroutines, expressive modules, a dynamic type system with an ability to extend existing types with new methods and much more.
A taste of Dy:
func fib(n) {
func fib(a = 0, b = 1, c) {
return a when c is 0
fib(b, a + b, c - 1)
}
fib(c: n)
}
//Calculate the n-th fibonacci number
fib(50)
Extending standard types:
func Float.Pow(n) {
var result = 1.0
for i in 1..n {
result *= this
} when n > 0
for i in -1..n {
result /= this
} when n < 0
result
}
20.12.Pow(3) //Output: 8144.865728
And a small example with iterators:
func fetch() {
yield "Hello, world!"
yield 22 * 1.25
}
for x in fetch() {
print(x)
}
Output:
Hello, world!

Dy is shipped with a CLI (command line interface) which can help you to familiarize yourself with the language.
