Nickle supports a -variety of datatypes, especially arbitrary precision numbers. - -The programming language vaguely resembles C. Some things in C which do -not translate easily are different, some design choices have been made -differently, and a very few features are simply missing. - -Nickle provides the functionality of UNIX bc, dc and expr in much- -improved form. It is also an ideal environment for prototyping complex -algorithms. Nickle's scripting capabilities make it a nice replacement -for spreadsheets in some applications, and its numeric features nicely -complement the limited numeric functionality of text-oriented languages -such as AWK and PERL. |
