Anderson, Sheyne | Sinap types a run-time language for data-description | Sinap IDE is an editor for graph-based programming languages (as distinct from textbased). To facilitate versatility in Sinap IDE it was necessary to design a language (Sinap's Type System) to generically describe families of well-formed cyclic data structures. This language can be used to maintain ... | | 2017 |
