SNOBOL4, while known primarily as a string language excels at any task |
|||
involving symbolic manipulations. It provides run time typing, |
|||
garbage collection, user data types, on the fly compilation. It's |

primary weakness is it's simple syntax, and lack of "structured |
|||
programming" and "object oriented" constructs. |
