I was one of those hold-outs on OOP -- finally made the move using a fully/real oop language, only to have MS kill it.
Anyway; glad I kept up on my old procedural type coding, which PB is...

If M$ killed it, then there must have been some merit to the language.
What was it?
PureBasic is uniquely positioned to take advantage of the situation as defined in Ju's essay.
But as we know, market events are anything but logical.
Otherwise by now some whorprit entity would have bought the rights to this little gem of a program developer's tool.
Thankfully for us that hasn't happened.

- 1. First-Class Functions
2. High-Order Functions
3. Pure Functions
4. Closures
5. Immutable State
Will PureBasic fulfill these items in the future?
