### `Snowball`

*A fast, high-level programming language 🐱*

Snowball provides a high-level, easy-to-use syntax for writing fast, efficient code. It is designed to be **easy to learn and use**, while still providing the performance of a low-level language.







### One example to prove itself

Object-oriented programming, high-level abstractions, and low-level control are all possible with Snowball. Here's a simple example to demonstrate its capabilities:

```swift

// Generics and interface bound checks

func print(x: T) {

  // A simple yet powerful standard library

  std::io::println(x);

}

func main() {

  let mut a; // Mutability safety

  a = 10; // Type safety and type inference

  let b = a; // Borrowing and immutability

  print(b); // Type inference to its best

}

```
