SNOBOL (String Oriented symbolic Language) is an unstructured, imperative programming language mainly intended for text processing and pattern matching, that was first designed and implemented at Bell Laboratories. SL4 and The Icon programming language are later developments of the SNOBOL language that add Pascal like structured elements to the language but have less powerful pattern matching features.
History
Work on SNOBOL4 began in 1966.
