The Mercury logic/functional programming language system, including a self-hosting compiler with multiple backends targeting C, C#, and Java. It combines declarative programming with strong static analysis and error detection.
Use cases
- write logic programming programs with strong static typing
- compile declarative code to C, C#, or Java
- learn a pure logic/functional programming language
- build reliable programs with advanced static error detection
- cross-compile Mercury programs to different targets
- explore declarative programming on many operating systems
When to choose
- you want a statically typed logic/functional language with strong error detection
- you need declarative code compiled to C, C#, or Java backends
- you need broad OS support including Linux, macOS, Windows, and BSDs
When to avoid
- you need a large ecosystem of libraries and community packages
- you want mainstream language tooling and hiring pool
- you need dynamic or scripting-style rapid prototyping
