The time it takes to write a program, find errors and bugs in code, and update a program to add new features costs money. If the language we use can help us reduce the chance of introducing errors in our code, it will reduce the costs. If it helps us understand the code when we read it, it will let us add new features faster and also reduce costs. One goal of a programming language is ...
