Serpent (generic)

Serpent is a high-level programming language designed primarily for writing secure and reliable cryptographic software. It emphasizes code clarity, safety, and correctness, allowing developers to implement complex cryptographic algorithms with reduced risk of errors. Serpent features a syntax familiar to those experienced with assembly or low-level languages but offers higher-level abstractions. Its focus is on ensuring that cryptographic operations are both efficient and resistant to common vulnerabilities, making it suitable for applications where security is paramount, such as encryption, hashing, and digital signatures.
