Nim

Nim is a general-purpose, multi-paradigm, statically typed, compiled, high-level system programming language. It was designed and developed by a team led by Andreas Rumpf. Nim aims to be "efficient, expressive, and elegant", and supports metaprogramming, functional, message passing, procedural, and object-oriented programming paradigms. Nim includes features such as compile-time code generation, algebraic data types, and a foreign function interface (FFI) for interfacing with C, C++, Objective-C, and JavaScript. It also supports compilation to these same languages as intermediate representations. Wikipedia
