Getting Started with Dylan ™

Abstract

Getting Started with Dylan ™ introduces Apple Computer's Dylan ™ programming language. Dylan ™ is a object-oriented dynamic language designed for efficient compilation. It uses an algebraic infix syntax similar to Pascal or C, but supports an object model not unlike the Common Lisp Object System (CLOS).

This tutorial is written primarily for those with solid programming experience in C++ or another object-oriented static language. It provides a gentler introduction to Dylan ™ than does the Dylan Reference Manual , although it refers to the latter book frequently.
