| =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| |
| B<Swift> is a new, high performance systems programming language. It has a clean |
| and modern syntax, and offers seamless access to existing C and Objective-C code |
| and frameworks, and is memory safe (by default). |
| |
| Although inspired by Objective-C and many other languages, Swift is not itself a |
| C-derived language. As a complete and independent language, Swift packages core |
| features like flow control, data structures, and functions, with high-level |
| constructs like objects, protocols, closures, and generics. Swift embraces |
| modules, eliminating the need for headers and the code duplication they entail. |
