> Carp is a small programming language designed to work well for interactive and performance sensitive use cases like games, sound synthesis and visualizations.
The key features of Carp are the following:
* Automatic and deterministic memory management (no garbage collector or VM)
* Inferred static types for great speed and reliability
* Ownership tracking enables a functional programming style while still using mutation of cache-friendly data structures under the hood
* No hidden performance penalties – allocation and copying are explicit
* Straightforward integration with existing C code
