# Slides for Cat programming language presentation

## Christopher Diggins — 2006-05-13 22:34:05

    I am submitting an application to present a talk at the upcoming LANG .NET

    2006 symposium about the Cat programming language. My focus is on Cat as an

    easily optimized intermediate language. Cat is more or less a dialect of

    Joy. I believe that stack-based functional languages are ideal for

    performing high-level optimization. Much of the presentation applies to Joy

    as much as to Cat.

    The powerpoint slides are online at http://www.cdiggins.com/cat.ppt . I'd

    appreciate any comments or suggestion on how to improve it.
