| <? prevnext "<h1>Tcl is Powerful</h1>" ?> |
| |
| Tcl's power lies in its extensibility and flexibility. |
| <p> |
| The core language gives you a lot - and extensions give you the rest. |
| <p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Object oriented programming: [incr Tcl]</li> |
| <li>Web: mod_dtcl, AOLServer, tclhttpd</li> |
| <li>Database: postgresql, oracle, mysql, etc...</li> |
| <li>Data structures: graphs, trees</li> |
| <li>Testing: tcltest</li> |
| <li>System Administration: expect, scotty (SNMP)</li> |
| <li>Unix facilities: TclX</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| Tcl is fast - it's byte compiled at run time, like Python. It |
| also has a lot of high level things that you would expect in a |
| scripting language - lists, hash tables, easy to use socket |
| commands, etc... |
