# EiffelBase

EiffelBase, covered by the open-source IFFEL license, is one of the principal contributions of Eiffel: a library of fundamental structures and algorithms covering the basics of computing, and resulting from a "Linnaean" effort at a general-purpose taxonomy of computing structures. EiffelBase is one of the most carefully designed and extensively used libraries in the object-oriented industry.

The EiffelBase library includes:

- A Kernel that defines the core classes of all Eiffel systems.
- A Data Structures cluster including classes for all the major data structures (sets, lists, tables etc...)
- A Support cluster that provide access to the environment, basic math operations and a few other helper classes.
