Talk:Neko (programming language)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Concept

The concept section doesn't make sense, there're several contradiction just in a few sentences.

Neko has a compiler and a virtual machine with garbage collection. The compiler converts a source .neko file into a bytecode .n file that can be executed with the virtual machine. Neko differs from the .NET CLR and the JVM in that it doesn't use a bytecode language, but a high-level programming language. A developer doesn't have to write a compiler for it.

Things that needs to be clarified:

• Does Neko have a bytecode language?
• Is running Neko programs on a VM an option or not?

I don't know much about Neko, but for what its worth I agree that this article doesn't make sense. I'm going to fix it by editing out the least likely bits. I'm sure that Neko does have a bytecode language and a VM and it does have a compiler. -- Lilwik (talk) 02:36, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
