hello people,
I've added the Mozart Oz compiler in the Great Win32 Computer Language
Shootout which can be found at: http://dada.perl.it/shootout
this site presents "A benchmark comparison of a number of programming
languages".
*please* read the forewords before flaming!
this it is not at all to be intended as a language advocacy page, or
something to state that a language is better or worse than another.
this is not my interest, and I try to be as objective as possible.
the main point is to provide an implementation of several simple
tasks in various languages, and see how they behave in terms of
CPU time and memory usage. it's also a funny way to learn new
programming languages :-)
that said, I haven't learned Oz yet. I've implemented 5 very simple
tests, but I need some help in implementing the others. my Oz code is
probably very primitive, so improving it would be a great help.
I've also stumbled upon a possible bug in the STDIN management under
Win32, which makes impossible for me to implement a lot of tests that
relay on STDIN (this is id #860 in the bug tracking system if someone
is interested).
I hope this will be of some interest in the Oz community.
Oh, and thank you all for such a nice, powerful, well documented open
source language ;-)
cheers,
Aldo
