A programming language that feels like Python and scales like CUDA, without needing any effort to make your code parallel, is here.

Have you heard about Bend?

No?

You aren’t too late if you’re reading this story.

It was a few hours ago when I came across its GitHub repository titled ‘Bend — A massively parallel, high-level programming language’.

Bend is a high-level programming language that aims to alter how we perform parallel computation forever.

I know that there have been so many languages that have promised to change the world, but hold on because Bend might actually do so!

Before we move forward to learn about the good parts that Bend promises, let’s learn a bit about Parallel computation.

Computer programs by default run their operations one after the other.

This is because they rely on a single Thread, which is executed by a processor core one instruction at a time.
