Why did Dylan lose to Objective-C
- by Adam Gent
I have played/worked with many different programming languages and Dylan is still one of my favorites.
My question is why did Dylan fail when Objective-C, Ruby and even Scheme have had more success?
Was Dylans performance that much worse than Objective-C that Apple went with it or was purely for social/political reasons.
Hopefully someone from apple will see this question :)
BTW if you have no idea what Dylan is please google Dylan Progrmaming Language.
