Summary: Functional programming language, oriented on symbolic information processing
Description:
Refal (REcursive Function Agorithmic Language) is a functional programming language, oriented on symbolic information processing. It was created in 60-s of XX century by V.F.Turchin (in former the USSR) as "metalanguage" to describe other languages semantics. But the language also proved to be an useful working instrument for programmers, who solved the applied problems in various spheres of human activity. Refal history is closely connected with dramatic events in life of his author, famous physicist, V.F.Turchin. You can get to know in detail about Refal and about its author from site "Refal/Supercompilation Community" www.refal.net (mirror www.refal.org). After some time of calm, Refal begins to attract attention again as convenient and elegant programming language, free from excessive details, with simple and natural mechanism of pattern matching. Here and further, if contrary won't be fixed, Refal-5 System will be considered as definitive realization of Refal language
