Line 22: '''Citrine''' is a general-purpose [[programming language]] for [[Cross-platform\|various operating systems]]. It focuses on readability and maintainability. Readability is achieved by syntactic and conceptual minimalism. The language is heavily inspired by [[Smalltalk]] and [[Self (programming language)\|Self]] but has some very distinctive features. Like Smalltalk, Citrine treats everything as an object and focuses on sending messages to these objects. However, unlike Smalltalk, Citrine lacks the concept of a class. In this regard, Citrine is more like Self and [[JavaScript]] because it uses [[Prototype-based programming\|prototypes]]. The combination of Smalltalk-like messages and prototypes is what makes Citrine unique. Since version 0.7, Citrine has focused on supporting ~~native human~~natural languages instead of just English to help people reduce the number of bugs because of confusion and misunderstanding due to language barriers. As such Citrine 0.7 and higher feature a translator to translate between human languages. ==Syntax==
