Generality is achieved through the fact that the language is completely object-oriented. It provides traditional syntax and extended semantics for its declarations, statements and expressions. Some of the most common data types and data structuring mechanisms are provided within the language, but it is expected that most of them will be defined through application oriented interfaces. } }
