"Austral is a new systems #ProgrammingLanguage. You can think of it as #Rust: The Good Parts or a modernized, stripped-down #Ada. It features a strong #StaticTypeSystem, #LinearTypes, capability-based security, and strong modularity."
Introducing Austral: A Systems Language with Linear Types and Capabilities:
One might notice a couple of things. In the current version of all these codes, (a) you do not need a garbage collector, because it’s using linear types, and (b) you do not need the math library and I do not use floating point.
(I temporarily had floating point while I was confounded to find what I was doing wrong with integers.)
