Introduction

The current focus of the 'coding nights' is to learn a language, there are lots of languages to learn, hopefully we'll look at mind stretching ones rather than just learning how to code with curly braces once again.

Details

Currently we are playing with ruby, and exploring coding katas.

Other languages to consider:

• Haskell
• Smalltalk
• Prolog
• LSL (Linden scripting language)
• J
• Brainfuck
• IO
• C++
• Lisp
• Assembly
• Chuck
• Self

These include different paradigms & styles: Functional, object oriented, logical, dynamic, static, strong, low-level, obfuscated, class-based, prototype-based, graphical, musical.
