Icon is a very high level general-purpose programming language with extensive features for processing strings (text) and data structures. Icon is an imperative, procedural language with a syntax that is reminiscent of C and Pascal, but with semantics at a much higher level. Icon has a novel expression-evaluation mechanism that integrates goal-directed evaluation and backtracking with conventional control structures. It has a string scanning facility for pattern matching that avoids the tedious details usually associated with analyzing strings. Icon's built-in data structures include sets and tables with associative lookup, lists that can be used as vectors or stacks and queues, and records.

The Icon Programming Language, 3rd Edition Foreword to The Icon Programming Language, 3rd Edition A simple fact keeps me coming back to Icon: With Icon, I can write programs I don't have the time to write in C or C++. Without Icon, those programs wouldn't be written and tasks that could be automated would be done manually instead. When teaching a course in comparative programming languages at The University of Arizona, I took the liberty of attempting to identify the design philosophy of Icon: provide a "critical mass" of types and operations free the programmer from worrying about details put the burden of efficiency on the language implementation C scores about zero on those points. C++ provides the ability to build or buy a "critical mass" and it also can free the programmer from worrying about details in many cases, but that takes effort. With Icon, it comes in the box. I think that many programmers don't have a language like Icon in their toolbox. The result is that instead of building a personal tool to automate a task, the task is done manually. I think every programmer can benefit by knowing a language like Icon. C, C++, and Icon can be viewed as filling three different niches:

Icon Programming Language Icon is an excellent, high-level, general-purpose programming language. It deserves to be (much) better known! It was created by Ralph Griswold, one of the original creators of SNOBOL4 back at Bell Labs, and embodies many of the same concepts but in a "structured" and more modern-looking framework. It also has quite a number of interesting new features that SNOBOL4 doesn't have (unfortunately, it also lacks a few very nice features that SNOBOL4 has). The language is especially well-suited to problems in information structures, combinatorial problems, and complex problems which often lead to convoluted solutions in other languages. There are a number of good sites on the Web with information about Icon, so I won't attempt to duplicate them here. Instead, I'll encourage you to visit them and learn a little bit about the language. Note that Icon is completely in the public domain, and is all but totally machine-independent, so you can probably get a version for almost any imaginable type of computer system you have available and would like to run it on.

itweak: An Interactive Debugging Utility for Icon Back Business Free Stuff Contact ... Exit In a hurry to get something done? Go to the download page What Is itweak itweak is an interactive debugging utility for the Icon programming language. The idea is that you compile your Icon program to ucode files (.u1, .u2). itweak then tweaks the ucode, inserting potential breakpoints. The resulting ucode files are linked with a debugging run-time and off you go. The itweak system provides you with most of the facilities you would expect from an interactive debugger, including the ability to evaluate a wide range of Icon expressions. Prerequisites itweak requires Icon 8.10 or higher. It is completely written in Icon, and thus as portable as Icon itself. itweak will not work with Jcon , the Icon implementation based on the Java Virtual Machine. Instant itweak on Unix Assuming you have the itweak distribution in the form of a file named itweak- version .tar.gz (where version is a version designator): uncompress and untar the file. This can be done in a single step, version This will create an installation directory in the current directory. The name of the installation directory will be

ISBN 0134478894 Date finished: 2002-08-12 [Buy this book] (why?) A reasonably good introduction to Icon from the language's designers. Icon is noteworthy because it takes the idea of generators and uses it as a primary concept; every expression is a generator capable of producing multiple values or reporting failure, and the language will backtrack when an expression fails. I wonder what Icon's authors originally intended the language to be used for, as this book doesn't make that clear at all. Icon is obviously well-suited for writing parsers and similar string-chopping programs, and the backtracking evaluation would make it straightforward to write goal-searching programs, but there's no mention of OS interfaces other than opening files. The language itself is rather compact, using single-character operators a lot, so ?L returns a random object from the list L, and
