clean 1. adj. used of hardware or software designs, implies `elegance

surprises but does things in a way that is reasonably intuitive and
relatively easy to comprehend from the outside. the antonym is `grungy'
or crufty. 2. v. to remove unneeded or undesired files in a effort to
reduce clutter: "i'm cleaning up my account." "i cleaned up the garbage
and now have 100 meg free on that partition."

clean
a lazy higher-order purely functional
language from the university of nijmegen. clean was
originally a subset of lean, designed to be an experimental
intermediate language and used to study the graph
rewriting model. to help focus on the essential
implementation issues it deliberately lacked all syntactic
sugar, even infix expressions or complex lists,
as it was used more and more to construct all kinds of
applications it was eventually turned into a general purpose
functional programming language, first released in may 1995.
the new language is strongly typed milner/mycroft type
system, provides modules and functional i/o including a
wimp interface, and supports parallel processing and
distributed processing on loosely coupled parallel
architectures. parallel execution was originally based on the
pabc abstract machine.
it is one of the fastest implementations of functional
languages available, partly aided by programmer annotations
to influence evaluation order.
although the two variants of clean are rather different, the
name clean can be used to denote either of them. to
distinguish, the old version can be referred to as clean 0.8,
and the new as clean 1.0 or concurrent clean.
the current release of clean 1.0 includes a compiler,
producing code for the abc abstract machine, a code
generator, compiling the abc code into either object-code
or assembly language depending on the platform, i/o
libraries, a development environment not all platforms,
and documentation. it is supported or will soon be
supported under mac os, linux, os/2, windows 95,
sunos, and solaris.

- [9] : Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
clean
the various forms of uncleanness according to the mosaic law are
enumerated in lev. 11-15; num. 19. the division of animals into
clean and unclean was probably founded on the practice of
sacrifice. it existed before the flood gen. 7:2. the
regulations regarding such animals are recorded in lev. 11 and
deut. 14:1-21.
the hebrews were prohibited from using as food certain animal
substances, such as 1 blood; 2 the fat covering the
intestines, termed the caul; 3 the fat on the intestines,
called the mesentery; 4 the fat of the kidneys; and 5 the
fat tail of certain sheep ex. 29:13, 22; lev. 3:4-9; 9:19;
17:10; 19:26.
the chief design of these regulations seems to have been to
establish a system of regimen which would distinguish the jews
from all other nations. regarding the design and the abolition
of these regulations the reader will find all the details in
lev. 20:24-26; acts 10:9-16; 11:1-10; heb. 9:9-14.
