Revision 94762733 of "ARS based programming" on enwiki

'''ARS based programming''' is built on three principles: ''Abstraction'', ''Reference'' and ''Synthesis''. These principles can be seen as a generalized form of the basic operations of the ''[[Lambda calculus]]''. All essential features of a [[programming language]] can be derived from ARS even the three major programming paradigms: [[functional programming]], [[object-oriented programming]] and [[imperative programming]].

The programming language [[A plusplus|A++]] is a demonstration that based on ARS programming patterns can be developed that are very powerful providing a solid base for solving common programming problems.

ARS based programming as covered in the book ''Programmierung pur'' (''Undiluted Programming'' or ''Barebones Programming'') published in German under the ISBN 3-87820-108-7 (the English rights are available now) is facilitated by three tools: A++, ARS++, and ARSAPI.

# '''[[A plusplus|A++]]''', a minimal programming language with interpreter for basic training enforcing rigorous confrontation with the essentials of programming;
# '''[[ARS plusplus|ARS++]]''', a full blown programming language including a virtual machine and compiler, extending A++ into a language that is fully ars-compatible with a functionality going beyond that of [[Scheme (programming language)|Scheme]] with the power of coping with the challenges of real world programming;
# '''ARSAPI''', a bridge between ARS and popular programming languages like [[Java (programming language)|Java]], [[C (programming language)|C]] and [[C++]], consisting of definitions and patterns recommended to express ARS in the target language.
