An '''expression-oriented programming language''' is a [[programming language]] in which every (or nearly every) construction is an [[expression (computer science)|expression]] and thus yields a value.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Glossary - The Rust Programming Language |url=https://web.mit.edu/rust-lang_v1.25/arch/amd64_ubuntu1404/share/doc/rust/html/book/first-edition/glossary.html#expression-oriented-language |access-date=2022-07-06 |website=web.mit.edu}}</ref> The typical exceptions are [[macro (computer science)|macro]] definitions, [[preprocessor]] commands, and [[declaration (computer programming)|declarations]], which expression-oriented languages often treat as [[statement (computer science)|statements]].
[[ALGOL 68]] and [[Lisp (programming language)|Lisp]] are expression-oriented languages. [[Pascal programming language|Pascal]] is not an expression-oriented language.
