Now I'm on a totally unrelated project, writing code in C, but still using
the GCC compiler under the hood. The previous developers used raw pointers
quite a bit. However, as I expand the code, I'd like to use some of the
features in C++, but Atmel Studio doesn't REALLY support C++.
Code::Blocks
Here is the way I understood the goal of your long quest (I may be
completely mistaken since I do not quite get what part of the job you
want to leave to the language and what part to its compiler)
"Is there a language that allow the developer to add information about
the way a particular program

Sure: Fortran.

GCC does value analysis similar to what you mentioned. You'll find it
under the -fdump-tree-vrp options. To provide extra information you
can add range checks which GCC will pick up on. If you know a value is
small, use a small integer type and gcc will pick up the range of
values which can be assi
I have been looking everywhere online and talking to other coders at
every opportunity about this, but cannot find a complete answer.
Different languages have different obstacles to complete optimization.
Software developers often have to drop down into non-portable
Assembly because they can't get
