language (AE) An embeddable language, written as a C

interpreter by Brian Bliss at UIUC. AE is compiled with an

application and thus exists in the same process and address

space. It includes a dbx symbol table scanner to access

compiled variables and routines, or you can enter them

manually by providing a type/name declaration and the address.

When the interpreter is invoked, source code fragments are

read from the input stream (or a string), parsed, and

evaluated immediately. The user can call compiled functions

in addition to a few built-in intrinsics, declare new data

types and data objects, etc. Different input streams can be

evaluated in parallel on Alliant computers.
