"I think that CH is the best tool so far I have used. I used to fear C/C++ until I came across the CH interpreter.
CH is good as far as its stated job is concerned. I like its documentation and its look. It helps me solve a lot of compile time and run time errors as I learn the C programming language. The only suggestion I can make is that it has to be publicized more and more on Google groups. I only wish that CH would grow in popularity as PHP or any other scripting environments out there. " -- Ishe Chinyoka, University of Zimbabwe "We are using Ch for teaching computer science and scientific computing. We are very pleased to have such a scientific computing environment with C as programming language. It is as powerful as Matlab."
-- Francois Auger, Professor, the Instrumentation and Measurement Department of the Technology Institute of the University of Nantes, France.

"Ch and Embedded Ch toolkit provide a framework and development environment that enabled the development of an extremely flexible Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) environment. The standard ANSI C/C++ support makes training an issue of the past.

The performance of the Ch interpreter far exceeded our expectations. The technical support from SoftIntegration was exceptional and sets a standard for other developers to achieve.

I strongly recommend Embedded Ch for all people developing Script based Test Environments."

-- Errol Korpinen, Manager at Skyworks Solutions Inc.

"I use Embedded Ch for multi-threading applications. The result was really great, especial about global user data stuff. I can fetch my per-engine data from the Ch function wrappers. The extensions are coded in a clean way and I don't have to declare global data. This is really great whenever they had to work in multi-threaded application, no strange things to maintain the globals over multiple library loads."

-- Roberto Fichera from Tekno-Soft

"I have been using the Ch shell on Windows. I find it very useful to have access to UNIX tools via a Ch installation. Supplying these tools with Ch is also excellent from a software configuration management perspective because instead having to specify the versions of individual tools to people who want to use my scripts, they can simply install Ch.

I mainly use the UNIX tools from Ch using forward slashes so that my scripts can also run on Unix. I have not used any UNIX tools extensively from the DOS command prompt, I prefer to use Ch!"
-- Roy Glasscock, Software Engineer

"I was pleasantly surprised to find out how simple Embedded Ch was to implement inside our software products Visual Chip and Fab It! 2008. Embedded Ch is well documented and within a few hours we were able to create our own custom API's, compared to Python which took us weeks. I would recommend Embedded Ch to anyone looking to embed a C scripting language into their software product."
-- Simon Garrison --- CEO, Numerical Innovations LLC.

"Ch is an excellent environment for research and teaching. I use it for research and teaching on mechatronics and control. To me the main advantage of an interpreter is portability. Ch allows C programs to be executed portably across different platforms. In addition, a major advantage of Ch is its user-friendly mathematical and graphical infrastructure. Getting that in C, C++ or Java requires assembling a large collection of libraries from a variety of sources, each with its own quirks. I am very impressed with the salient graphical plotting capabilities in Ch. They are easy to use and very useful for applications in engineering and science."
-- Professor David Auslander, University of California at Berkeley

"Ch is very much appreciated by beginners and teachers alike. For the first time in my career, I was able to introduce pointers to complete beginners without it seeming unnatural."
-- Professor Jym Feat, Paris8 University, FR

"I am very pleased with the OpenCV capability of Ch, among many other aspects! Ch has potential well beyond environments such as Matlab for concept testing, modeling, and simulation with the added benefit of the 'resultant code' being more easily integrated into the ultimate target application in a seamless manner. For our purposes this translates into high productivity and qualifies as rapid application development (RAD), not to mention 'Rapid Education Assimilation' (REA) when endeavoring to learn the nuances of new functions."
-- Dean Vieau, Magna Donnelly Inc.

"Using Ch Mechanism Toolkit has allowed our engineers to implement linkages in our machines with greater confidence and better understanding what the loads will be. We often need to qualify analysis performed via Solidworks COSMOS or other multi-body simulation tools . Ch Mechanism Toolkit is an ideal tool for performing this necessary task. We can perform design and analysis of different mechanisms very quickly using the open source C++ classes in the toolkit. It helps to ensure our machines will ship on time and is engineered using best practices right away from the beginning. The time savings is maybe not always measureable when we are right the first time but we can measure the cost of being wrong. "
-- Rick Lukanen, Engineering Specialist, Douglas Machine Inc.

"I was planning to use Ch (within the ChSciTE IDE) to develop an application that demonstrates the formation of the solid state from a random molecular soup. I have been using C for some time to develop a number of algorithms for realtime teching of solid state physics/chemistry, but the lack of good graphics primitives in combination with the inherent weaknesses of C led me to explore Ch. The graphics and the high level scientific programming structure within Ch makes the implementation of the teaching methods a breeze. I really like the graphics in particular.
Framing the initial problem using Ch in ChSite was straight forward. The combination is a delightfull scientific model development platform. The method can be tested line by line with detailed graphical output if required.
For me, the best addition to Ch (with my limited experience) would be some type of export to compile/link for computationally intensive subroutines that could then be linked back in during execution. "
-- Professor Simon Bates, Purdue University

"I have used the Ch Professional Edition, CGI Toolkit, NAG Statistics Package, and ODBC Package for research purposes. I personally think that Ch is a very useful software package and each university has to start teaching it as a class, in extension to programming and scientific/engineering courses. It gives you the power of C/C++ (low level and object oriented programming), the flexibility to plot graphs, create web pages but also access to the NAG Statistics Package."
-- G. Britzolakis, George Mason University

"Ch is a terrific product, really amazing. I am using it under win2000 pro and xp/pro and it is very STABLE. I love it on the first touch."
-- Alain Van hentenryck

"Over the past 15 years, we have written a variety of c programs to read microsof t binary (not ieee) format metastock data and to analyze it, graph it, scan multiple tickers, etc. for some time we have been hung up on the change in data format to intraday data. while we know its format, it is very difficult to get at the data in harmony with our other tools. Ch is our solution. we are currently writing what were "primitive" array operators (stochastics, exponential moving averages, fft) in one of our other tools (technical analysis scanner, now defunct) in Ch. then we will be able to subject our data to our bizarrre fourier analyses both visually and programmatically.
I must say I was pleasantly surprised that Ch was able to gobble up most of my old standard and non-standard C code without too much complaint. When I looked back on my old code, I was embarassed to see what I had written, even my most awful bit twiddling came through ok.
Congratulations on a very good product."
-- Nick Dobrinich

"I have long wanted a general purpose true C interpreter. Back in the days when I was first learning C, it would have been invaluable. I like the idea that I can write a function and test it quickly without compiling, and that is one of the first things I tried using Ch for. It seems to do the job pretty well. I think you have a nice product with great potential as well as immediate applications. Nice job!"
-- Paul Zink, a freelance developer and network administrator

"When I want to satisfy my numerical interests, I can just extend my use of Ch. I do not have to learn an entirely new language with subtly different semantics to one that I am used to. The time it will save in programming mathematical problems will soon justify the cost."
--- Francis Glassborow, Chairman of the Association of C & C++ Users in C Vu Magazine

"We are very impressed with the product, especially the full library support. After understanding some principles, we were able to run some 10+ old C source code in the interpreter without any problems (it passed the regression tests 100% as the compiled version did - impressive!)."
-- Christian Wolf, BHI

"Ch is a great programming tool! Although I was a Fortran programmer and I had no previous experience of C++, I adapted myself very quickly.

The toolkits available allow the user to start without the burden of installing and linking libraries. The built-in linear algebra and numerical procedures are very useful.

I had the opportunity to test the Ch Mechanism Toolkit. Ch and this toolkit provide the user with an outstanding programming environment to develop his own kinematic analysis or synthesis algorithms. The post processing and animation of the mechanisms are very easy thank also to the ready-to-use graphical primitives.

I strongly recommend Ch and this toolkit for all the people working in the mechanism field. "

-- Professor Ettore Pennestri, Universita Roma Tor Vergata - Italy

"I am interested in Ch as an alternative to Matlab, which I use for many things, including classroom examples and homework problems for control theory courses I teach, and also my research, which involves modeling and control of fluids.
Ch's features are almost as nice as Matlab's, its installation is *much* simpler than Matlab's, and the price couldn't be better!   I like the structure of Ch much better as a programming language. Matlab is not a suitable language for a course in programming though I feel students should know it. Ch is a very nice choice for a first programming course for engineers. Overall I'm very impressed with Ch!"
-- Professor Clancy Rowley, Princeton University

I am a teacher at a high school of seventy-four students. Our resources are limited so purchasing Borland's C++ is beyond our means. Thanks to your software I am able to provide our students with the experience of programming in C++;
I am more than pleased with your software. Ten - twelve years ago I was employed at DeVry University in Kansas City, MO and developed the first Programming in C++ offered at that campus; at that time we used Borland's C++ package. After two weeks of using it, I find your software does an excellent job with presenting the concepts of C++. I feel that my students are getting a quality experience in programming in C++ and will be able to use this knowledge in college C++ programming courses.
I would appreciate the recommendation for a text book that favorably supports your software. The topics provided in your Help page are very useful, and I like to also have a book for reference.
In closing, I was pleasantly surprised with your software and couldn't be more pleased with its quality. When I began my internet search for shareware for C++, I wasn't prepared to find a product that is working out as well as yours is. Thank you very much.
-- Bill Garnett, a teacher at Jess Schwartz Jewish Community High School

" I was very pleased, when I read your manuals, that a truly great numerical library is being a part of Ch. It did help me with the problems I've recently come into! As I work for an astronomical institute, specializing in stellar physics, I'd like to use this powerful tool to improve our data gathering."
-- PhD Lubomir Hambalek, Comenius University

"I do some assembly and C coding. I switch between Windows and Linux systems almost on a daily basis and was always missing a lot of the console mode possibilities including usefull scripting when I'm on windows.

My impression about Ch is 100% positive, feeling at home within a few minutes, very stable, offering everything, one could think of, no endless time waiting for Borland C++ builder or MS Visual C++ to come up, no more 10+ seconds waiting for a 20 line program to compile.

To summarize it: A great piece of software, very promising and it will surely give me a lot of interesting hours exploring it. I will surely make it known to my friends. A very big compliment to you and your coworkers!"
-- Wolfgang Petersen

" I have a course in the spring in C programming at the university.
Normally we use Linux+gcc+... AND(!) XP+blodshed because some students prefer Linux or XP.
But this gives problems because there have to fight with a new language at the same time as fighting with gcc, make, blodshed etc etc.
I have used splint for "validating" C sources but still they need to learn all the facilities in a swiss knife at one time ... not easy.
Ch (or other C interpreters) effectly narrows the problem sphere into C and nothing else. They do also take "to short arrays" etc etc :-) "
-- Prof. Jens Dalsgaard Nielsen, Aalborg University, Denmark

"I use Ch as an aid in the programming course I am taking. I am learning C, and it enables to compile and test my programs before I finalize them for my assignments. Ch is perfect for what I need to do. It is easy to use, and very clear in describing any errors in the program code I have written. It's a great resource.
-- David Ledderhof, a student at University of Guelph.

"Ch is the first implementation, portable to different platforms, of major new features of complex numbers, variable length arrays (VLAs), and IEEE floating-point arithmetic added in C99. I have to mention how impressed I am with both the quality of Ch and how complete the environment is. I had recently ported code written over years in C shell, Perl, and Python to Ch. The porting was very simple and straightforward."
-- Tom MacDonald, the former Chair of the ANSI C Standard Committee

"Embedded Ch saves us a lot of hard work from implementing our own proprietary scripting language, and makes it possible to provide a robust scripting interface to manipulate our product from outside. C scripting is also best suited for our customers, who are heavy C developers themselves. We are very satisfied with embedding Ch into our products."
-- Toshiyuki Tega, Manager of Technology Group, Axell Corporation

"I must say I like Embedded Ch. I accomplished my goal in less than half an hour with embedded Ch; while I spent a week evaluating Python and tried to get it to do the same, without success.
Also, I found Python difficult to use, due to different data types. It is both expensive and inconvenient to convert the entire array into a Python list. It requires to add a callback function to a C++ class, which converts an entire array into a Python Object and pass back to the Python script. So I came with a lot of call-back 'baggage' that clouded my mind.
Embedded Ch makes my task simpler and easier, with a very clean solution. No need for callback, no separate dll; simply pass the pointer as arguments to the scripted function. No other embedded interpreter has this capability."
-- Dr. Ho, Peng Yip, The Boeing Company

"We greatly appreciate the power and flexibility of a C interpreter bring to the simulation and design of power electronics and motor drive systems. An embedded C interpreter makes it extremely easy to write C code in PSIM without the need of a separate C compiler. The response from our customers on the C Script Block in PSIM, powered by the Embedded Ch interpreter, is very good. Thank you for a well-developed product."
-- Hua Jin, president of Powersim Inc

"I use the Ch interpreter to check C syntax and mathematical formulae. I'm learning C, and I find it helpful for checking if the things that I'm trying make sense in the C language.
I have found, and I continue to find it a valuable learning tool which is helping me to understand C concepts faster than I would otherwise."
-- Steve Keate, Technical Manager, Sea Integration

"I have always believed that at the level you are operating (University-level teaching and research, computer science and mathematical sciences that benefit from computer modelling) the optimal tool would be a good compiler/interpreter plus diagnostics plus mathematical graphics. So few products offer this seamlessly - maybe yours is the killer app in this field!"
-- Professor Robert Harding, University of Cambridge

"I am using Ch shell programming capabilities to automate the download and extraction of data from archive (*.ar) files using the Unix ar command for an automation system running under Win2000. I use ar within a Ch built-in 'for each' loop to extract all files (*.ar) within a given directory. It works beautifully.

I am very impressed with the capabilities of the Ch language, and plan to make more use of it in future in developing automation scripts."
-- Jeremy Walsh, National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research, New Zealand

Ch definetely helps me for performing the following task:

• testing small programs; it would take less time than when using conventional compilers
• testing functions; compilers won't accept incomplete programs
• testing solutions to programming problems such as those found in topcoder.com

"Wow! what an interesting piece of work. Ch seems to have gathered up of everything! This makes a better shell than bash or the others put together. You certainly have gathered together a remarkable grouping of commands, talk about a rich programming environment --- I'll always love the command line interface."
-- Josh Myers

"Our mission is to provide our customers with the best interferometric solutions. Scripting allows our customers to create their own solutions and customizations, based on the core functionality of the system. Embedded Ch is an excellent scripting engine in C/C++. It adds many new scripting features and functions to IntelliWave including advanced automation, data processing, and systems integration with other programs. It extends our customer's ability to conveniently automate IntelliWave for a variety of tasks in different industries. We believe we will significantly reduce the development, maintenance, and training cost when our developers and users use the same language for our interferometric analysis software."
--- Raymond Castonguay, ESDI President and CTO

"I use your software to learn the language and develop little command line programs. Your software is very good: I've uninstalled all the other because this is the top."
-- Alessandro Colleoni

"I am using Ch to teach some friends C/C++ fundamentals. This is so much easier than the edit compile run sequence needed to demonstrate concepts through a compiler. Thanks again for a great learning tool."
-- John Painter, Co-Founder, DoverSynergy, LLC.

"I am learning both C and C++. I use Ch I downloaded from your site as an interactive learning aid. It is a wonderful tool and I cannot imagine these languages be made more "friendly" any other way. Thanks for the help."
-- Jerry Laws

"I am a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Northwestern University. I work on growth and coarsening of precipitates in materials. I use the Ch Professional software for solving some linear and ordinary differential equations in my computer programs and it has been a great help with solving my mathematical equations."
-- Susan Farjami

"I am a software engineer in Big Brat Ltd., a company making video surveillance solutions. As a computer vision based algorithms researcher, I have found Ch OpenCV Package very useful. It saves me a lot of time when I'm working on such areas as face or number plate recognition! It lets me to fast prototype algorithms with the same code which will be used in a final product."
--- Konrad Kokosa

" I was searching for a text-based development environment and found Ch. Ch is the best what I've found.
The Unix-like Shell, the testing of the C/C++-Source without compilation, directly from the shell, is the best software-integration under windows and unix. I have a Windows XP, but i don't like the graphical user interface as an operating system. Ch is text based and I can fully control, what the system have to do, of course, also the GUI.
At first I use Ch for writing and testing source-codes without compilation (only for studying the programming-language and the "All-In-One-Environment" of Ch). It's the fastest way to test new written Software in C/C++ and learn more about this logical programming language. "
-- Corc Ergilooglu, Augsburg, Germany

" I settled on your product after a long search. I use your product because it is the most stable interpreter I have come across for C and C++. I never expected such a stable and complete interpreter for C and c++ to exist. It is so convenient to learn a language in an interpreter! I use it to quick-test small modules in C and C++. Moreover you provide so many UNIX tools bundled that one can virtually be ready for an actual UNIX environment. I want to promote it in my college.
I had downloaded your free edition two years back and found it useful. At that time I was looking for a C++ interpreter. I found yours very stable and standard compliant. I have tried at least five other compiler/interpreters. and yours is undoubtedly the best.
I was working from the command line till now. This time I have downloaded the IDE also- it is very helpful. I will suggest using this tool to all of my friends to learn C, C++ and scripting. "
Jyoti Sharma -- A 3rd year student in Computer Science and Engineering in Vellore Institute of Technology.

"We use Ch in biomechanics to build matrix, to find degrees of freedom of cinematic couples and much more. We draw the body parts with Autocad and we calculate their grades with Ch in every project. Ch is very easy to use and good for our projects."
-- Annunziata D'elia, from "Bio-Medico" Campus in Rome

"I have been using Ch to learn C. Ch is an absolutely wonderful environment for learning C and the students that have been curious about programming have found it awesome."
-- Sam Whitaker, Instructor in Business & Economics, National College Cincinnati, OH & Florence, KY

"Ch is a congenial development environment for numerical programming. I can certainly recommend Ch to scientists, engineers and C/C++ programmers.
If you already know C/C++, you'll find Ch a congenial development environment - the fact that it's an interpreter and has a big library make a lot of things very simple."
-- Dr. Martin Heller, Mr. Computer Language Person at BYTE.com

"I use Ch Professional to do some plotting of graphs for my labs and stuff. It is really great at plotting. It makes it a charm to plot in C."
-- DengMin Lee, Nanyang Technological University

"I use the excellent Ch graphics routines for business and personal use. I also use Ch to prototype C/C++ applications for reading and extracting/summarizing and creating statistics from flat input files. It is an excellent package! I wish I had your product when I was learning C."
--- Donald Hiller, DP Manager, LA County

"I use Ch mostly as a powerful scripting language. It's really nice to be able to write scripts with that simple syntax. It's also great to write and test code snippets and small programs. Development and testing is very quick with Ch. I'm just getting used to the aditional facilities of Ch, besides interpreting C code, it also works great as a shell. I prefer to use it for writing shell scripts and small programs instead of using bash or python. I feel much more confortable with Ch than with Python."
-- Guilherme A. C. Colombelli, UNIDERP, Campo Grande, Brazil.

"Ch is a really good idea. It is almost amazing that it took this long for someone to implement and bring to market. I enjoy having it on my system for casual experimentation as an alternative environment available for modeling and proofs-of-concept. From what I have seen, it is nicely done."
-- Dan Lentz

"I downloaded your Graphical library software, and it really solved my problem. What you people are doing is really commendable and exemplary. I pray that you succeed in your future plans, and provide your customers with these highly efficient solutions."
-- Nauman Majid

"I have only just started using Ch, and it has already speeded up the development of C programs by an order of magnitude; by removing the "pain" associated with the edit-compile-link cycle, it makes possible a far more interactive and dynamic style of programming than is traditional in C/C++, or even Java, and akin to scripting languages like Perl or Python.
One feature in particular that struck me immediately is its remarkable compliance with standard C: the programs I have developed interactively using Ch have all subsequently compiled successfully, and, conversely, Ch has coped handsomely with every valid C program I have tried on it so far, without a single modification.
All in all, I'm very impressed."
-- Johannes Flieger

"As a C debugger and learning tool -- being able to execute C snippets as scripts is a much better debugging method than breakpoints (at least for what I do). Plus if I run across a function I'm not familiar with I can just try it without the whole write/compile/link/run tedium. I especially love that I have access to the C interpreter, the WSH, and the Win32API. This way I can use regular C, VBScript, JScript, or MFC C++ seamlessly as the situation requires.

In summary: cool shell, very stable and reliable so far. Glad to see C holding the line against the barbaric Basic and Java incursions."
-- Weldon Goree, Sr. Network Administratorar

"Ch has been used to examine text data and observing logs of running programs. It's like having many of the advantages of UNIX while working on windows!! For example, Command "od" is fantastic for examining unprintable characters in files, a task quite painstaking and time-consuming in our other available tools; It is a great product."
-- Blaine Byars, a programmer/analyst

I downloaded Ch when I've been looking for some C-compiler for my son. He is a student of Computer Science and Informatics on The Faculty of Mathematics, University of Belgrade. He, for now, uses it for learning C and is very satisfied with Ch, so only use MS Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition when he wants .exe or need debug mode. I use Ch for revising my previous knowledge of the language C and as a fun interactive tool - at least as a calculator, & ... for looking for a tool for some small web-apps. No more to add compliments to Ch then I see from other users opinions. Really good idea, interactive, professional made, modular... and so on.

-- Maksim Mitrovic

"I installed Ch Professional Edition, version 2.1, for Windows on my desktop. Every one of my legacy C/C++ programs worked gracefully on the PC without the fuss of tweaking codes and without going through the tedious edit-compile-link-debug cycle."
--- Professor Gary Wang in IEEE Spectrum , University of Manitoba

"Wow! Pretty comprehensive piece of kit. If I could get it to do what I needed it to, it would blow my own code right out of the water! The numerical analysis tools in Ch are just fantastic, and could remove the need for months of research in many cases. I think it's great stuff, and a good alternative to Python if you ask me, not to mention a darn sight more mainstream."
-- Richard Hince

"I use Ch to do some data processing work. It's very good, better than C and similar to Matlab."
-- Qiang Shen, from Umass Medical School

"I just want to let you know that this is a great program. It was well worth the time"
-- Cedric Henderson

"I am not a real software pro. I _really_ liked to see is that with Ch I can run practically any UNIX command and even some of the utilities like awk or gawk or nawk.with the Ch software it looks like we could use the nawk programs directly with very few rudimentary changes. And those changes would not be necessary if I had put all the data files from UNIX into a Windows file structure that had the same names as the UNIX directory structure.
What I had done -- or tried to do -- and this was a bigger headache than I thought it would be: I converted the nawk programs to Perl using the Perl utility a2p then was able to run the Perl programs in Windows using ActivePerl. The Perl utility a2p is written to convert awk or nawk to the UNIX flavor of Perl. This is so even for the ActivePerl that runs on Windows. So I had to un-UNIXize the converted program. For someone like me, it took a lot of time to figure out what were the UNIX system commands that the Perl translator had left behind (then comment them out of the program), and to figure out if there were any Windows system commands that should be put in their place (there were none). Ch makes all of the above steps unneccessary."
-- Brian P. Glover, Software engineer

"I am a teacher for the Saint Joseph School system. I use Ch to teach a AP course, and I use it to do research on high temperature superconductivity. It makes learning C from scratch easier, and it makes research program development faster."
-- Jeff Parish , Teacher

"I am interested in your package as an alternative to Java. I would like to minimize the numer of languages I have to program in. So far you seem to be doing everything right. It is just a mater of getting the public to recognize your product and use it."
-- Ranald Engelbeck

"First of all I must say I was pleased with the program. I am mainly using the program as both a teaching and learning experience. I am teaching others how to use C++ and basic and other programming languages. Second, for the most part it resolves my problems."
-- Richard Mchaley, Computer Teacher

"It does meet my expectations as what I need for my junior students is an environment that is somewhat insulated for really bad programming that can crash a less forgiving op sys. Please keep up the good work."
-- Bruce Harvey, Instructor

"I just needed a simple C compiler and Ch is simple enough to make the learning process easier."
-- Syta Saephan, Student

"I've tried to use the Ch OpenGL. It's really great! It's wonderful that graphics with OpenGL can now be handled on our PC in such an easy way. Thanks a lot to Softintegration for providing such a powful and easy to use programming environment!"
-- Yi Zhang, a PhD student

"I use Ch primarly for teaching undergraduate and graduates classes. Personally, I find it an excelent tool for problems in robotics and control."
-- Hans-Jorg Schneebeli, Professor

"Numerical solutions are easier in Ch than in conventional C/C++. Ability to test code on the command line is easier for the novice to learn C/C++. Planning to use Ch in teaching graduate students of structural engineering aspects of numerical computations and structural analysis and design. Ability to plot graphs is extremely useful."
-- Dr. Satish Annigeri, Professor, B.V.B. College of Engineering & Technology

"I was looking for an engineering friendly programming language. Ch comes with the necessary built in functions for data analysis making it a better option than C alone. The numerical capabilities of the Ch program (using built in functions) far exceeds my expectations. The comparison with matlab functions and FORTRAN programs in the reference guide was extremely helpful. I also like the ability to implement system level commands easily within a program."
-- Tom Eason, Assistant Professor, University of South Florida

"I am a third year computer science and physics student. I find that I need to do quite a lot of calculations especially in Physics. Using a calculator to repeat calculations is too tedious and a waste of time. Ch is the answer for me to quickly solve a problem and repeat the calculation. Also, using Ch to test a piece of code is much easier."
-- Johan Botha, UNISA Student.

" I have pretty much concluded that this language (Ch) serves both as an extension of C and as well an outstanding scripting language."
-- Khan Shirani

"I previously used small command-line applications I wrote myself in C for performing the required operations. Ch makes the process much easier by eliminating the compile-link step every time I modify and improve the programs, which happens fairly regularly. I don't know enough about Perl, sed etc, so being able to script in C is a huge bonus.
I would like to congratulate you on the quality and speed of Ch. I would heartily recommend it to anyone else requiring a similar solution to mine."
-- Thomas Davies

" I am using your products for teaching machine desin g with mechanisms. My students have liked them. Your products are very useful, s ince they enable direct computation and visualisation of how mechanisms work."

"I've just played with it and it works very well - much better than I expected. I like the idea of just being able to enter a line of code and see the result."
-- Carlo Mills

"I was an SCO Unix/Xenix person and I miss shell programming. I was also a programmer for a number of years using COBOL, FORTRAN, RPG, IBM 360/370ASSEMBLER, etc. Although I took a C course, I never really got into it. I have an older version of Microsoft C++ and decided that I would like to learn how to program in C++. It was during my search for useful information to help me get started that I came across Ch. I'm afraid it's love at first sight. Not only will it help me learn C++, it has a multitude of other uses, not the least of which is simply a nice scientific calculator. The down side is that I may now lose interest in C++ because of the time I'm spending learning the limits of Ch. So, at this point in time, my interest is academic. Whether or not I actually do something useful or profitable remains to be seen. In the meantime, thank you for making Ch available. And, it scratched my shell programming itch.
Suggestions? I'm reluctant to suggest because my suggestion may be counterproductive to your making a profit from all the time you've invested in the product. I wish you could just give it away to everybody.
Comments? It's a really, great product.
-- John L. Lewis

"Our lecturer recommends us to learn and study Ch. My first impression - 'Oh my God - this is ANSI C interpreter'. But now, I know this is more than an interpreter. You have done great work! This language is amazing!"

"I find your software very pealsant to use and full of libraries to execute my C programs in openGL. And the use of shell commands are also pleasant."
-- Chaabane Rim

"I just wanted to see whether C can really be interpreted. All the C programs I tested with your interpreter went through perfectly. Its really a wonderful product. I am sure this makes a lot of difference in the development time as I do not need to compile the program each time."
-- Panna Lal Patodia, Excellent Software

"I use your company product as C interpreter to learn more about algorithms for list, stack, tree & dictionary allocation, memory reuse for small memory systems. It helps."
-- Leszek Rychert

"I downloaded Ch because I am trying to teach myself C. This means that whenever I write even the smallest piece of code I make loads of errors and I really don't want to be continually re-compiling. It also gives me the greatest freedom to make quick alterations and to see what effect they have on how the program performs. For this purpose, Ch has been very useful, thank you. "
-- Tom Hedge

"I were looking for a tool to substitute Matlab which is far too slow. As I have to make algorithms in C language, Ch is a good choice. It is easy to use. I basically use it for plotting and all the math functions."
-- Radim Zemek

"I originally downloaded your product to model dynamic systems with your control systems toolbox. The software is very versatile and effective for modeling. I have began to use your product for coding in C as well. The interpreter reduces the development time and increases productivity significantly."
-- Chris Hickam

"I am a control systems PhD, with 15 years of Matlab experience, who spends most of his time doing software engineering. Ch is a dream come true."
-- Matt Wheeler

" I am a mathematician. There are many fine products available these days, but I have found every one I tried deficient in one or more crucial areas of use. Sometimes there is nothing available for the task at hand.
This required me to write my own code to do what I want done. Although I were rather proficient in Pascal years back, coding these days is a whole new game. I am trying to learn to use various languages and specialized tools to develop the software I need. I am certain that an interpreter is the best vehicle for experimenting when first learning a programming language. Ch is the best interpreter for C/C++ that I have found on the Web. It has been very useful for me. I am grateful to you for offering Ch at no cost."
-- Dr. Harvey Fox

"I'm using the product to help me learn C programming, primarily. The fact that it also parses C++ is a bonus. I'm also going to be using it for scripting, where a C program would be overkill, but Perl just doesn't quite cut it. Love the product. " -- Roger Lee, Manager of Aural Moon

" The idea of having a C-Interpreter on my machine looks very nice to me. Hacking in a few lines of code and let it run, see what is happening without any time waste for compiling, linking etc., - brilliant!"
-- Hermann Reimers, Technician

"I'm an academic, so the models I need are often not contained in prepackaged software, but I don't like to use much time on compiling, linking, etc. I've just used your product to write mean-variance code using the matrix capabilities, but so far I'd have to say Ch is great."
-- Ray Hagtvedt, University of Georgia

I downloaded ch when I was looking for some scripting language for C++. At this moment I have almost totally replaced the windows command prompt with ch :) It's really great. I'm working a lot with unix and when I have to go to the dos prompt for some small task bye "reflex" I type ls instead of dir, and with ch this is working :) This is very good (of course, this was only one example of why I like it).
-- Ferenc Deak

"I use your product with OpenCV. I think your product is awesome! I'm amazed a C interpreter could be so fast. "
-- an opencv user

"I am an Emeritus Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the Univ. of Pittsburgh. I have two basic uses for Ch. One is to perform Unix-like functions on my Windows PC. The other is to run C programs on this machine. Your software performs nicely for these tasks. "
-- Professor Richard Dougall

" Finally, the speed of an interpreted scripting language, with the sophistication and ease of use of C. What could be better? Until someone writes an x86 assembler interpreter for scripting, this product will be unbeatable. "
-- Meta from macupdate review

"I am using your program to check my C codes, which I am writing for scientific research applications (I biophysicist-theorist, carrying out research on different aspects of biopolymer physical chemistry). Your software is truly helpful in my work."
-- Jewgeni Starikow, Germany

"I do C, PhP, Perl, Java web + graphics programmin things +graphical arts. Comparing Ch with the similiar products, as far I can see, it is a really impressive product, really ingenious."
-- Konrad Stein, Germany

"I am a engineering student at Devry university and I find your product a great help with my homework. I wish I have found your site earlier. I have shared this info with my fellow classmates and I feel eventually more and more applications will be web based. Thank You. "
-- Juan Jerez

"I am writing an interactive program with a command-shell-like interface, and rather than write an interactive shell from scratch I decided to use an existing interpreter for some scripting language which I could extend with my own commands.
I downloaded Ch to evaluate how suitable it would be for this application, along with around 15 other scripting environments. I liked the Ch shell a lot when I started it up, very easy to use, allowed me to set and get variables and run shell commands using the syntax I wanted, and had auto-completion on command names. It got into the top three, along with Tcl and iPython (a more advanced interactive python interpreter, which I eventually rejected on account of it's size).
-- Chris Brown

"I have Ch for developing camera calibration software using the OpenCV library. It is very useful for prototyping. For speed purposes, I can compile the same code using Borland's free compiler before running."
-- Kristian Kirk

"I am using ch to test prototypes of my bioinformatics tools written in C. Ch helps to cut down development time."
-- Rinaldo Wander Montalvao

"Ch is an awesome product. I needed to do a somewhat complex calculation for a bet with a friend, and I needed to program it. I needed to find all the palindromic numbers up to 28682. I know, weird, don't ask. I found your product through Google, downloaded, coded, and it worked great. You should be proud of what great product you have."
-- Keith McCurdy

" I use Ch for all my programming tasks. As an interpreter, I feel I have more control over my program and its results. I'm programming in C for some neural networks projects. I really feel your interpreter is a great programming tool, and also gives me more nice features than what a regular compiler can offer. I'm very pleased with the results I have. My computer won't get stucked, results are more easy to see and to manipulate. I think the word that best describes Ch it's KIND."
-- Ricardo Majalca
