Influenced By ngn/k, BQN

Goal is a K-like language that brings in ideas from Perl and BQN.

A main principle stemming from the influences of Goal is satisfying requirements of shell scripting[1]. Some notable changes from the K tradition[2] are:

  • Atomic Strings
  • String Quoting Constructs
  • Format Strings
  • Regular Expressions
  • Error Handling

Goal is embeddable and extensible using the Go programming language.
