Added part 2
==Part 2: Study a language that solves a similar problem and describe it in this homework==
# One simple code example. Your comments must sufficiently explain the meaning of the code.
# Describe the implementation. (Two paragraphs and pseudocode of the implementation.) There are not currently any languages or libraries that solve this problem. The closest thing to it is an HTML form application that takes in a few parameters and a list of name-link pairs and spits out the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code to draw the described navigation bar. Although this does allow users to create navigation bars quickly and easily, it has several limitations. The first is the fact that the navigation bar can only be customized using the very limited set of parameters the creators of that program allow you to specify. Our program will give users access to a much broader set of CSS attributes. Secondly, the navigation bar is inconvenient to change down the road; the customer would have to essentially create a new navigation bar from scratch, find the code of the original navigation bar, and replace it. Our program has a file for the navigation bar that can easily be modified, and since the navigation bar is generated dynamically, the changes can take effect immediately.
==Part 3: What features specifically will your language support==
