APL (A Programming Language) is an array-oriented programming language developed by Kenneth E. Iverson in the 1960s. Its central datatype is the multidimensional array. APL uses a large range of special graphic symbols to represent most functions and operators, leading to very concise code. It has been influential in the development of concept modeling, spreadsheets, functional programming, and computer math packages. APL is known for its powerful and concise syntax, enabling developers to think more about the problem they’re trying to solve than how to express it to a computer. It’s particularly well-suited for working with arrays and matrices, making it an excellent choice for numerical analysis and scientific computing.
=={{header|BASIC256}}==
BASIC-256 is an easy to use version of BASIC designed to teach anybody (especially middle and high-school students) the basics of computer programming. It uses traditional control structures like gosub, for/next, and goto, which helps kids easily see how program flow-control works. It has a built-in graphics mode which lets them draw pictures on screen in minutes, and a set of detailed, easy-to-follow tutorials that introduce programming concepts through fun exercises.

Line 24 ⟶ 28:
C++ is an extension of C, adding object-oriented features. It's used for a wide range of applications, including game development, systems programming, and high-performance software.
=={{header|Chipmunk Basic}}==
Chipmunk Basic is an interpreter for the BASIC Programming Language. It runs on multiple OS platforms, and is reasonably fast for a pure interpreter. Chipmunk Basic presents a traditional (vintage) terminal-command-line programming environment, and supports a simple, old-fashioned, and easy-to-learn dialect of the Basic Programming Language. (Line numbers are required when using the built-in command-line console, but are not required in Basic programs written using an external text editor.)
=={{header|COBOL}}==
COBOL (Common Business-Oriented Language) is one of the oldest programming language still in use today. Originally intended primarily for business and finance applications it was designed to be as English-like as possible. Since its beginning, it has evolved whilst still retaining its flavour. The latest standard is COBOL 2023. It's known for its readability and suitability for large-scale data processing tasks.
=={{header|Dart}}==
Dart is a modern, cross-platform, object-oriented programming language. It can be used to create web, mobile and desktop applications with a single source code. Dart has a clear and concise syntax, a static and dynamic type system, and supports functional and reactive programming. Dart runs in a virtual machine that optimizes code performance and security. Additionally, Dart can be compiled to JavaScript or native code to take advantage of each platform's capabilities.

Line 55 ⟶ 67:
Fōrmulæ is a free, open source, symbolic, visual, homoiconic, high-level, multi-paradigm, arbitrary-precision programming language for scripting in academic and research environments. The main objectives of the language are: to create programs with a notation closer to algorithms and mathematics; to minimize the requirements for the programmer (only a web browser is needed) and; to have modularity of the language, packages incorporating new elements to the language can be created and dinamically/selectively added.
=={{header|Gambas}}==
Gambas is the name of an object-oriented dialect of the BASIC programming language, as well as the integrated development environment that accompanies it. Designed to run on Linux and other Unix-like computer operating systems, its name is a recursive acronym for Gambas Almost Means Basic.
=={{header|Go}}==
Line 100 ⟶ 116:
PHP is a server-side scripting language commonly used for web development. It's known for its ability to generate dynamic web content and interact with databases.
=={{header|PureBasic}}==
PureBasic is a programming language that combines the simplicity of BASIC with the power and speed of C. The key features of PureBasic are portability (Windows, Linux, OS Very fast and optimized 32 or 64-bit natives. It is an ideal language for beginners and experts who want to create fast and efficient programs.
=={{header|Python}}==
Line 108 ⟶ 128:
Quackery is a lightweight, open-source, homoiconic programming language designed for recreational and educational purposes. It's inspired by Lisp and Forth and runs on a virtual processor. It uses stacks extensively and supports dynamic memory management. The language is simple and not designed for high-performance tasks, making it suitable for learning and experimentation. It's implemented as a Python function and can be easily implemented in other languages that support bignums, dynamic arrays, first-class functions, and automatic memory management.
=={{header|Quite BASIC}}==
Quite BASIC is a simple and fun programming language that can be used to create games and applications. It is based on the BASIC language, which was one of the first popular programming languages. It has an easy-to-learn syntax that allows you to use graphics, sounds, and keyboard and mouse events. It allows programming directly in the web browser, without the need to install anything.
=={{header|R}}==
Line 139 ⟶ 163:
Swift is a modern, open-source programming language developed by Apple. It's used for building iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS applications, known for its safety features and performance.
=={{header|True BASIC}}==
The Original BASIC since 1964. Simple to use, with the full complement of functions and statements in every version, it is widely used in education and by individual programmers. Allows you to write and run structured code as well as line-numbered legacy code, and even compile/bind your own standalone applications.
=={{header|Wren}}==
Wren is a lightweight, dynamically typed scripting language designed for embedding in applications and game engines. It focuses on simplicity, performance, and ease of integration, making it suitable for extending the functionality of other software or for game scripting.
=={{header|Yabasic}}==
Yabasic is a traditional basic-interpreter. It comes with goto and various loops and allows to define subroutines and libraries. It does simple graphics and printing. Yabasic can call out to libraries written in C and allows to create standalone programs. Yabasic runs under Unix and Windows and has a comprehensive documentation; it is small, simple, open-source and free.
