New languages are inspired by existing languages: every generation learns from the previous one.
Kotlin is no exception: its design is based substantially on the designs of languages such as Java, Scala, C#, Groovy, Python, Nice, etc. This talk will explain which parts of the design are inspired by which languages and what Kotlin does differently in each case.
