Pike is an interpreted,
object-oriented, dynamic and fast
programming language with a syntax that looks a lot like
C++ on the surface. It includes a powerful modules system that, for instance, has image manipulation, database connectivity, and advanced cryptography. It is simple to learn, does not require long compilation passes, and has powerful built-in data types allowing simple and fast data manipulation. The official homepage can be found at <
