In this episode we have the pleasure of talking to Anders
Hejlsberg, Chief Language Strategist at Microsoft. We started by
discussing his more distant past, namely, his involvement with
Turbo Pascal and Borland's Delphi. We then looked at the influences
Delphi had on C# and how C# evolved from Delphi. In the next
section we discussed a couple of general language design issues,
among them components and checked vs. unchecked exceptions. Next,
we discussed interesting issues about languages of the future,
static vs. dynamic typing, functional programming, meta programming
as well as the importance of good support for concurrency. We
concluded the discussion by looking at the interplay between
languages and IDEs.
