Let's talk about modules!
from Iowa Type Theory Commute · host Aaron Stump
I start Chapter 13 (in Season 2) of the podcast, on module systems. Almost all programming languages I know include some kind of scheme for modules, packages, namespaces, or something like this. I discuss the high-level ideas of namespace management and type abstraction, two main use cases for module systems. Subsequent episodes will discuss module systems (from papers or documentation) of various languages.
