SNOBOL4 (StriNg Oriented and symBOlic Language) is a language for text processing, pattern matching, and much more, first designed and implemented at Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc. (BTL) in the 1970's.
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.
