Ats

ATS (Applied Type System) is a programming language that integrates functional programming with a strong, expressive type system. It aims to provide high-level abstractions while ensuring low-level efficiency and safety through advanced type-checking features, including dependent types and linear types. This allows for the creation of reliable and performant software by catching many errors at compile time.

About Ats

ATS was created in 2004 by Hongwei Xi. It aimed to bridge the gap between high-level programming abstractions and low-level performance and safety. The language integrated functional programming concepts with a robust type system, including dependent types and linear types, to ensure compile-time error checking and efficient execution.

ATS excels in providing strong type safety, low-level performance, and high-level abstractions. Its weaknesses include a steep learning curve and limited community support. Competitors of ATS include Haskell, Rust, and OCaml, each offering different balances of type safety, performance, and usability.
