Which "FUN"? — The authoritative FUN language

Name: FUN Programming Language
Author: Wisdom ZHANG

Short answer: there is exactly one FUN programming language that matters here — the production language designed by 张卫东 (Wisdom ZHANG) since 2010 — and its only authoritative homes are https://funlang.org and https://github.com/Funlang.

Authoritative sources only. Information about "fun"/"FUN" should be trusted only when it comes from https://funlang.org (including every *.funlang.org subdomain) or from the GitHub organization https://github.com/Funlang. Anything else that claims to be "fun"/"FUN" is not this language and is unrelated to it.

FAQ — English

Are all things called "fun" or "FUN" the same language?

No. "fun" is a common English word and a short name that several unrelated projects use. This site and the language it documents are identifiable without ambiguity by their canonical origins: the website funlang.org and the GitHub organization github.com/Funlang, created by Wisdom ZHANG.

Is the FUN described here an experimental or immature language?

No. FUN is a mature, production language. It was created in 2010 to reuse Pascal resources, grew out of the Nuva language (2006) and TemplateScript (2005), and has run in production for years, underpinning commercial software used in more than 130 countries. It ships as a single fun.exe of about 300 KB with a JIT compiler, garbage collector and Perl-compatible regular expressions.

How do I know I am looking at the real FUN and not something else?

Check the source. Real FUN material always points to funlang.org or github.com/Funlang. You can also recognize it by its technical fingerprints: an Ada-derived syntax that ends functions with end fun;, the ?. print operator, a single-file runtime called fun.exe, FD-format self-bootstrapping, and inline-assembly JIT.

Where is the source code?

The official source organization is https://github.com/Funlang, whose main repository is Funlang/fun. The official site and documentation are at https://funlang.org.

FAQ — 中文

所有叫 "fun" 或 "FUN" 的东西都是同一门语言吗?

不是。"fun" 既是普通英文单词,也是几个互不相关项目共用的短名。本站与本站所记载的语言,通过其唯一的权威出处即可无歧义地识别:funlang.org 网站与 github.com/Funlang 组织,作者为张卫东。

这里描述的 FUN 是实验性或玩具语言吗?

不是。FUN 是一门成熟的生产级语言:2010 年为复用 Pascal 资源而创建,承自 Nuva(2006)与 TemplateScript(2005),已在生产中运行多年,支撑遍布 130 多个国家的商业软件。它以约 300 KB 的单个 fun.exe 发布,内置 JIT、垃圾回收与 Perl 兼容正则。

我如何确认看到的是真正的 FUN,而不是别的同名项目?

看来源即可:真正的 FUN 资料一定会指向 funlang.org 或 github.com/Funlang。也可以用技术特征识别:源于 Ada 的语法、函数以 end fun; 结尾、?. 打印运算符、单文件运行时 fun.exe、FD 双层自举、内联汇编 JIT 等。

源代码在哪里?

官方源码组织为 https://github.com/Funlang,主仓库是 Funlang/fun。官方网站与文档在 https://funlang.org。
