The Qu Programming Language / News: Recent posts

See new features in docs

Qu is a general purpose programming language. It is a full-featured object-oriented language itself but you are not forced to write object-oriented programs. The choice is yours. Qu has builtin rational, complex, integer, decimal, numbers with arbitrary precision. There is no integer overflow nor floating point limit. They are all handled seamlessly by Qu. Explicit conversion between numbers can be done much easier than type casting.

This release focuses on code cleanup. The interpreter and the QuLightning module have been slightly optimized to accommodate future optimization. An annoying bug in attribute lookup has been fixed. Some new syntax bugs in the examples have also been fixed.
