Languages built to manipulate lists and strings of symbols rather than numbers. SNOBOL was developed at Bell Laboratories between 1962 and 1967 as one of the text-string-oriented languages of its era, and SLIP is a list processing language invented by Joseph Weizenbaum in the 1960s. Both were designed in the 1960s, when most programming languages were built around numbers, and each makes the symbol string or the list its basic material.
