Limbo is a programming language designed for the Inferno network operating system (NOS) from Lucent Technologies. Its syntax is influenced by C & Pascal. It is type-safe, and supports standard data types common to them, and several higher-level types: lists, tuples, strings, dynamic arrays, simple abstract data types.
