In the prop osal the actions for each transitions in the diagrams can be written elsewhere. So something can be used to encapsulate only the underlying graph and the transitions can be written elsewhere (It is almost like drawing the diagram on paper. But a program cannot use pictures. So it is almost like drawing a graph.). The next section contains a proposal for incorporating templating as feature of a programming language in an object oriented way. If this is incorporated into a language, then compilation will become: First execute an object oriented program by the complier which in turn generates the actual program to be complied (well, all these done programatically and not retrieved from a database). So this will enable code reuse. The next section contains something like the generalized switch statement, array and list transformations, temporary expressions, the match loop etc. They are not complex. Please visit http://arxiv.org/abs/cs/0504025 . Also you will find an elegant way to have operator overloading in it. And also a new framework for object oriented programming languages.
