- Description:
-
- ArmBob is a RISC OS version of Bob, a small object oriented language,
- with a syntax resembling C++. It works by compiling the source program -
- which may be spread over several files - into code for a virtual machine,
- as an intermediate step, and then running the virtual machine emulator.
-
- Bob provides an easy introduction to object oriented programming for
- those already familiar with Basic or C. Bob has a garbage collected
- heap which enables it to provide sophisticated datatypes without the
- complexities of storage allocation and pointer arithmetic.
-
- HTML documentation is available in the archive doc.html.arc
