.. index:: single: Applications developed in little hours; Introduction ================================================= Applications developed in little hours ================================================= Ring is a new programming language that focuses on the Natural Language Programming and Declarative Programming paradigms and will let you think different about programming and how to solve your problems in a better way. It's just released in 2016.01.25! In little days we got thousands of downloads and many developers started learning and using the language. Their feedback are the secret behind the language progress and success. They said that Ring is powerful, beautiful and easy to learn, Some of them provided good examples about what can be done using Ring in little hours. They are very happy with the language productivity. .. index:: pair: Applications developed in little hours; Quotes about Ring Quotes about Ring ================= "I like Smalltalk very much but now I like Ring better!" , Gal Zsolt (Hungary) "I find the language and its syntax very natural and easy to follow." , Bhudda (United States) "Very nice approach for a new language." , Matth Moestl (Austria) "Very interesting!

But in your case I must say "Perfect" Really, create new remarkable language like your Ring is really perfect job. Even create editor for your language in your language with only few rows... Even noticed in rosettacode.org ! I read your previous articles and I tried these examples a few days ago and I will continue. I love Ring. P.S.: Anders Hejlsberg, Niklaus Wirth, Bjarne Stroustrup, Ada Lovelace Hall of fame is waiting...." , Martin Nedopil (Czech Republic ) "Ring seems very attractive to me through its very easy design and the Qt bindings. I like its declarative approach and the generous documentation." , Shalok Shalom (Austria) "Ring (and plenty of extension library + Qt) is wonderful." , Kovacs Attila (Hungary) "Since two days I'm trying Ring and I'm really impressed, in add to power commands and easy use, it's really very efficient and very fast. Each day I hope to find the couple of the year PWCT+RING ... Maybe for my Christmas gift!!!! HO HO HO HO Continue your fantastic job and congratulations." , Jose Le Roux (France) "I was taking a tour around Rosettacode and have found Ring. I like the syntax a lot. It's clean and easy to understand. It looks like a very clean BASIC dialect without sigils.

I am using ring for many experiments and so far I love it. I really want to continue using ring and contribute what I can." , John (SienSystem) "Thanks for your effort. I took a quick look and found it interesting. You are trying to follow more or less like Clipper with simple command and no rigid declaration rules. Good." , Anand Gupta "Sir, Very Good" , Kamlesh Patel "There are 3 different styles, it looks like Python and C" , 64remy "That's more than a "cool" syntax, the example of writing free-form text between curly-brackets such that each word calls a function. Which could be interesting (A syntax like that would be nice for declaring text styles)" , LaurieCheers "If you browse around you see they have listed 160 contributors. This year they have entered Top 100 in the TIOBE index. Lot of effort seem to have been made to make this language pop out and catch the attention of masses." , Htuhola "I like the idea of The Ring being in ANSI C it's an impressive creation, and a lot of skill went into it" , Garry Taylor "Very innovative language! Syntactically clean" , CodeProject Member "The author must be commended for the readily-obvious hard work and effort that has gone into creating a rich ecosystem for his language. It seems that the language is quite extensive as well. I would find it useful to see a BNF grammar and concise coverage of its semantics." , Xx-Leninist-1917-Xx (Reddit) "I can see the AI of the future using this technology to solve computational problems for..... the humans." , Cryptonite (United States) "I like your programming language, I like you are going to develop mobile app using RingQt and also I appreciate your web library." , Domenico D'Oria (Italy) .. index:: pair: Applications developed in little hours; FetchStockData Application FetchStockData Application ========================== URL : https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ring-lang/-fa1U_SXSjo Author : Bert Mariani This App is written in Ring.
