'''Tom''' is a [[programming language]] particularly well-suited for programming various transformations on [[Tree_structure|tree structuresstructure]]s and [[XML]] based documents. Tom is a language extension which adds new matching primitives to [[C (programming language)|C]] and [[Java (programming language)|Java]] as well as support for rewrite rules systems. The rules can be controlled using a strategy language.

Tom is good for:

* programming by [[pattern matching]]

* developing compilers and [[Domain-specific_languagespecific language|DSL]]

* transforming XML documents

* implementing rule based systems

* describing algebraic transformations
