The goldfish (Carassius auratus) is a freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae of order Cypriniformes. It was one of the earliest fish to be domesticated, and is one of the most commonly kept aquarium fish.
A relatively small member of the carp family (which also includes the koi carp and the crucian carp), the goldfish is a domesticated version of a less-colourful carp (Carassius auratus) native to east Asia. It was first domesticated in China more than a thousand years ago, and several distinct breeds have since been developed. Goldfish breeds vary greatly in size, body shape, fin configuration and colouration (various combinations of white, yellow, orange, red, brown, and black are known).
The mutation that gave rise to the domestic goldfish is also known from other cyprinid species, such as common carp and tench.
Starting in ancient China, various species of carp (collectively known as Asian carp) have been domesticated and reared as food fish for thousands of years. Some of these normally gray or silver species have a tendency to produce red, orange or yellow colour mutations; this was first recorded during the Jin dynasty (265–420).
Goldfish are fish-shaped biscuits manufactured by Pepperidge Farm, a division of the Campbell Soup Company. The crackers are available in several varieties and since 1998, only 40% of the crackers contains a small anthropomorphic imprint of an eye and a smile. The brand's current marketing and product packaging incorporates this feature of the product: "The Snack That Smiles Back! Goldfish!", and the slogan is also reinforced by the mascot, named Finn, who wears sunglasses.
Originally invented by Oscar J. Kambly at Swiss biscuit manufacturer Kambly in 1960, Goldfish snacks were introduced to the United States in 1969 by Pepperidge Farm founder Margaret Rudkin.Young & Rubicam handled advertising Goldfish from 1998 until 2004 when Campbells brought in BrightHouse Live to handle the account.
Goldfish come in many varieties. (see below for Flavor Blasted varieties): (there are 39 different flavors)
Golden Fishery (Hangul: 황금어장; hanja: 黃金漁場) is a South Korean talk show broadcast on MBC. It first aired on the July 7, 2006 and has had a fairly stable audience share. Currently, Radio Star is the main segment in this program.

SML may refer to:
Standard ML (SML) is a general-purpose, modular, functional programming language with compile-time type checking and type inference. It is popular among compiler writers and programming language researchers, as well as in the development of theorem provers.
SML is a modern descendant of the ML programming language used in the Logic for Computable Functions (LCF) theorem-proving project. It is distinctive among widely used languages in that it has a formal specification, given as typing rules and operational semantics in The Definition of Standard ML (1990, revised and simplified as The Definition of Standard ML (Revised) in 1997).
Standard ML is a functional programming language with some impure features. Programs written in Standard ML consist of expressions to be evaluated, as opposed to statements or commands, although some expressions return a trivial "unit" value and are only evaluated for their side-effects.
Like all functional programming languages, a key feature of Standard ML is the function, which is used for abstraction. For instance, the factorial function can be expressed as:
