HOPE(ID:810/hop001)

alternate simple view
Country: United Kingdom
Designed 1978
Published: 1978

Named for Hope Park Square, where Edinburgh's Computer Science Department was (but also for Higher Order Parameters and "springs eternal" and so forth.)

R.M. Burstall and Don Sanella , U Edinburgh and Dave McQueen, Bell Labs 1978.

Functional language with polymorphic types and lazy lists. First language to use call-by-pattern.
a small polymorphically-typed functional language. First language to use call-by-pattern. HOPE was originally strict, but there are versions with lazy lists, or with lazy constructors but strict functions.
