Abstract
MIKE is a new programming language developed by the author as a base language for the development of algebraic and symbolic algorithms. It is a structured programming language with a MODULA-2-like syntax supporting special features such as transparent dynamic memory management, discriminated union types, operator overloading, data abstraction and parametrized types. This text gives an overview of the main features of the language as of version 2.0.
