What is Solidity? Example contracts
================= =================
Solidity is the DEV-created (i.e. Ethereum Foundation-created),
Javascript-inspired language that can be used to create smart contracts
on the Ethereum blockchain. There are other
languages you can use as well (LLL, Serpent, etc). The main points in
favour of Solidity is that it is statically typed and offers many
advanced features like inheritance, libraries, complex
user-defined types and a bytecode optimizer.
