  Nice is a new object-oriented programming language.
  It extends Java with many advanced features:
!    * Parametric types: this is especially useful for containers 
       (lists, hash-tables) and allows for shorter and safer code.
!    * Anonymous functions: functions can be created and manipulated as 
!      first-class expressions, just like in Lisp and ML. 
!      This is much lighter than Java's anonymous classes in many situations, 
       for instance with listeners in a GUI.
!    * Multi-methods: they allow methods to be defined outside classes. 
       This means that new methods can be defined on classes that
!      belong to a different package (even in java.*). 
       Multi-methods alse extend usual methods with the possibility to
       dispatch on every argument, instead of only the receiver class.
       This supersedes the Visitor pattern.
     * Tuples: this allows in particular methods to return several values.
!    * Optional parameters to methods. 
!      Optional parameters have a default value that is used when the parameter 
!      is not present in the call. This is much simpler than in Java, where one 
!      has to write several versions of the method for each combination of 
!      parameters. 
     * Nice detects more errors during compilation: programs written in Nice
       never throw NullPointerException nor ClassCastException.
