varlanguage
VarLanguage is a hypothetical programming language described in instructional and scholarly materials to illustrate variable binding, mutability, and basic control flow. It is designed as a minimal, readable model that helps learners understand how variables are introduced, how mutability is controlled, and how scope affects program behavior. The language is not standardized or widely implemented, but it serves as a reference point for discussions of variable semantics in education and research.
Design goals for VarLanguage include simplicity and clarity, predictable evaluation, and a small core feature set.
Core features commonly described for VarLanguage encompass two binding forms: mutable and immutable. Mutable bindings use
Example snippets in VarLanguage typically demonstrate a mutable binding being updated while an immutable binding remains
