	You can dynamically call DLL files and Windows APIs similar to DLLCall() in AutoIt but with more complex feature set and support to convert DLL functions into core functions and even dump them as a DLL to load back later so super speed loading/calling of thousands of APIs.

		+	It also has a huge amount of functions in its core that are very fast (avoiding the user having to reinvent the wheel and having it spin slowly like most script languages).
		+
		+	There are very powerful arrays/classes and one of the largest amount of operators and language features seen in any language.

	It was designed to be easy to use by beginners and simple in how much effort you need to do to accomplish tasks as such it uses the typical $Variable for all data types (even arrays) (unlike Perl where you must do @ and % and it can get confusing for a beginner).
