The Gosu Language

=================

Gosu is a pragmatic programming language for the JVM. It has been designed with Java developers in mind by providing a set of features that allow them to be more productive without sacrificing the benefits of Java's simple syntax and type-safety. Gosu is an object oriented language with a sprinkle of functional programming features.

**Gosu features**:

* Open Type System

* Advanced type inference

* Program files (scripts containing statements, functions, and classes at the same level)

* Structural typing (similar TypeScript's interfaces)

* Extension methods (aka enhancements)

* Java interoperability

* Lambda expressions

* Classes/Interfaces/Enums

* Generics (reified, covariant type parameters and no wildcards)

* Composition (with the delegate keyword)

* Properties

* Null Safety (supports operator ?. etc.)

* Named Arguments and Default Parameter Values

* A powerful for each statement with user-defined intervals types

* Member Literals

* Object Initializers

* Classpath Statement and Shebang (useful when you use Gosu as a scripting language)

* ...and more
