noun Definition of clu in Technology (language) (CLUster) An object-oriented programming language developed at MIT by Liskov et al in 1974-1975. CLU is an object-oriented language of the Pascal family designed to support data abstraction, similar to Alphard. It introduced the iterator: a coroutine yielding the elements of a data object, to be used as the sequence of values in a for loop. A CLU program consists of separately compilable procedures, clusters and iterators, no nesting. A cluster is a module naming an abstract type and its operations, its internal representation and implementation. Clusters and iterators may be generic. Supplying actual constant values for the parameters instantiates the module. There are no implicit type conversions. In a cluster, the explicit type conversions 'up' and 'down' change between the abstract type and the representation. There is a universal type 'any', and a procedure force[] to check that an object is a certain type. Objects may be mutable or immutable. CLU was one of Kamin's interpreters. clu2c compiled CLU to C. Concurrent CLU was an extension designed to support parallel proceses. E-mail: Paul R. Johnson <[email protected]>. 1
