What is Swift & Swift Playground?

[iMore Question]

I remember reading something I thinking in Wired about Swift being a programming language or something, but I'm not exactly sure. Also I caught a little bit of the Apple keynote from WWDC and I heard them mention a Swift Playground app? What is that? I just caught the name that's about it! LOL
