AQ is aninterpretedprogramming language. It'sfast,small,simple andsafe. At the same time, programs written in AQ can also be compiled.Perhaps a great work.

• Fast (source code compilation andrunning speed)
• Small (source code size)
• Simple (easy to learn)
• Security (safememory management andcode inspection)
• Cross-platform (supportsWindows,Linux andMacOS, etc.)
• Similar toC++ syntax (quick mastery)
• Interpreted (optionalcompilation)
• Free (subject toAGPL-3.0 orAQ License)
• Open source (underAQ license)

Notice:

1. The number of stars represents the degree of excellence in this aspect (maximum 5 stars).
2. This is only a rough comparison, and the actual situation may be different.
3. The open source mark (√) indicates that the language itself is open source.

As can be seen from the table, theAQ language has better performance in terms of speed, size, simplicity, security and cross-platformness. Its syntax style is similar toC++, it can be interpreted and executed or compiled and executed, and it is completely open source. AQ aims to be a general-purpose programming language suitable for various application scenarios. Compared with other languages, its advantage is that it has both high performance and ease of use.

AQ is currently under active development and has implemented basicsyntax andfunctions. But there is still a lot of work to be done, including optimizing performance, adding library support and improving development tools. We welcome everyone to join the development and contribute toAQ!

AQ can be installed inmultiple ways, includingsource code compilation andprecompiled binaries. The specific installation steps vary by platform, please check theInstallation Guide for more information.

On platforms such asLinux, you can compile like this:

mkdir buildcd buildcmake ..make

OnWindows, you need to downloadCMake and other necessary tools first, and thencompile.

Finally, you can run onLinux andWindows:

cd aq# Find an executable file like aq or aq.exe and run it

You can runAQ using thecommand line or theGUI.

./aq<file> -other-options
