1. New Programming Language. IBM' s original (temporary) name for PL/I, changed due to conflict with England' s "National Physical Laboratory." MPL and MPPL were considered before settling on PL/I. Sammet 1969, p.542. 2. A href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=functional language">functional language with href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=pattern matching">pattern matching designed by Rod Burstall and John Darlington in 1977. The language allowed certain sets and logic constructs to appear on the right hand side of definitions, E.g. setofeven(X) <= <:x: x in X & even(x) :> The NPL href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=interpreter">interpreter evaluates the list of href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=generator">generators from left to right so conditions can mention any bound variables that occur to their left. These were known as {set comprehension}s. NPL eventually evolved into {hope} but lost set comprehensions which were called href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=list comprehension">list comprehensions in later functional languages.

NonProcedural Language. A href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=relational database">relational database language developed by T.D.
