blatant bullshit. there's no such thing as very high programming language

''they might use syntax that is never used in other programming languages, such as direct English syntax.'' obviously a joke..
 
The result was '''keep'''. — [[User talk:CharlotteWebb|CharlotteWebb]] 01:12, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
*'''Speedy keep'''. No evidence it's a joke, examples are actual languages. The term gets many ghits for scholarly publications, and appears to have been the subject of a technical symposium.

***To quote the article itself "A good example of a very high-level programming language is [[Logo]]". BDL (see {{doi|10.1145/359863.359886}}) also. [[User:DMacks|DMacks]] 20:30, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' as per DMacks [[User:Caniago|Caniago]] 21:20, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
*'''Strong keep''', not keen on the phrasing of the AFD, but VHLL exists alright. As per DMacks, check out [[Logo]], and ISBN 0070350981 is a tidy book on the subject. [[User:The Rambling Man|The Rambling Man]] 21:23, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
*'''Strong keep''', please search when you are unfamiliar with a topic. [[Scheme (programming language)]] is another example. But arguably so is [[C shell|csh]]. --[[User:Dhartung|Dhartung]] | [[User talk:Dhartung|Talk]] 21:43, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' per DMacks. By "Logo" I assume you mean [[Logo (programming language)]] not [[Logo]]. --[[User:Bduke|Bduke]] 00:11, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
*'''Weak keep''', the term seems really pointless and arbitrary compared to other high level languages, but apparently has been used in academia. [[User:Krimpet|Krimpet]] 01:54, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
*'''Strong Keep''' More examples: [[SETL]] and [[ProSet]]. Google Books is ''awash'' with references on this topic [http://books.google.com/books?q=%22Very+High+Level+Languages%22&btnG=Search+Books&as_brr=0], it's a shame the nominator didn't do a little basic research before declaring a notable topic "blatant bullshit". If you disagree with one statement, then remove it or request a citation. As it happens, you're wrong - there is no reason why parsable natural language syntax cannot be used as as a programming language with a clever enough compiler or interpreter. --[[User:Canley|Canley]] 05:46, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
*Obvious '''keep'''. You can't say that VHLL don't exist or aren't notable when the ACM has a symposium on them!--[[User:OinkOink|OinkOink]] 06:15, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
