Programming language characteristics for learning

The problem of choosing the programming language for training is considered in the paper. Requirements to the language are determined, and a new programming language for training is offered. Language structures have С-like syntax, but more consecutive and regular. The language supports two programming paradigms: procedural and object-oriented. One of the main features of the language is the existence of singular compound data type — the generalized container. Some interesting properties of IDE are described besides the language definition.
