'''Microsoft Visual Programming Language''', or '''VPL''', is a visual programming and [[dataflow programming]] language developed by Microsoft for the [[Microsoft Robotics Studio]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/microsoft-robotics/bb483088(v=msdn.10)|title=From MSDN Docs|website=MSDN|date=March 2012 }}</ref><ref>[https://www.smashingrobotics.com/setting-up-microsoft-robotics-developer-studio-to-program-your-mindstorms-nxt/ Setting Up Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio to Program Your Mindstorms NXT]</ref>
VPL is based on the event-driven and data-driven approach.<ref>[http://www.public.asu.edu/~ychen10/fullpaper/SOSO2010YChenRaaS.pdf Robot as a Service in Cloud Computing]</ref> The programming language is distinguished from other Microsoft programming languages such as [[Visual Basic]] and [[C Sharp (programming language)|C#]], as it is the only Microsoft language that is a true [[visual programming language]]. Microsoft has utilized the term "Visual" in its previous programming products to reflect that a large degree of development in these languages can be performed by "dragging and dropping" in a traditional [[wysiwyg]] fashion.
