[Dclug] DC ACM Lecture, Tuesday April 26th, "Walter Bright: The D Programming Language"

[Winter]

Dear Colleagues,

Join us for a joint program by the Computer Science Department of George
Mason University and the Washington DC Chapter of the ACM on April 26th 
at 7:00 pm, for "The D Programming Language with Walter Bright".  Walter 
Bright will lead a discussion on the D Programming Language and its 
programming community. The D programming language is an advanced systems 
programming language. It is designed to combine the power and high 
performance of C and C++ with the programmer productivity of today's 
modern languages such as Ruby and Python. While its syntax style 
resembles C/C++, D is a multiparadigm language and supports many styles 
of programming including imperative, object-oriented, and metaprogramming.

Walter Bright graduated from Caltech in 1979 with a degree in mechanical
engineering. He worked for Boeing for 3 years on the development of the 
757 stabilizer trim system. He then switched to writing software, in 
particular compilers, and has been writing them ever since.
