L programming language

Three programming languages named L are:

• A programming language started by Larry McVoy, with extensive help from Jeffrey Hobbs, Oscar Bonilla, and Tim Daly, Jr. It aims to wrap C-like syntax around core Tcl functionality.^[1]

• A capability-secure and distributed language, developed by HP Labs. It is a derivative of lambda calculus, hence it is small, block-structured, dynamically-typed, and functional. It is both a language and an operating environment, like Smalltalk. It is capability-secure and distributed, like E.^[2]

• A theoretical language with three (or four) instruction types used to discuss computability in Martin Davis' Comptability, complexity and Languages (ISBN 9780122063824)
