What is ddb file? How to open ddb files?
File type specification:
The DDB file extension is associated with the Occam programming language. The .ddb file contains information about debugging process.
Occam is a parallel programming language developed by Inmos for their line of Transputers. Implementations for other platforms exist as well. (The language's name refers to William of Ockham, responsible for Occam's Razor.)
Occam builds on Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP) and shares many of the same features. It is, in a way, a practical implementation of CSP. Occam is a procedural language, similar to Pascal etc.
One feature (also found in Python) necessary to understand the examples below is that indentation and formatting is critical: expressions are terminated by the end of the line, lists of expressions need to be on the same level of indentation.
