Scientific Vector Language

<p>SVL or Scientific Vector Language is a <a href="/facts/Programming_language/cWTYbgWa">programming language</a> created by <a href="/facts/Chemical_Computing_Group/RLxAWKdy">Chemical Computing Group</a>. It was first released in 1994. SVL is the built-in command, <a href="/facts/Scripting_language/8pF4ajBL">scripting</a> and application development language of <a href="/facts/Molecular_Operating_Environment/YmhIJ3dS">MOE</a>. It is a "chemistry aware" computer <a href="/facts/Programming_language/cWTYbgWa">programming language</a> with over 1,000 specific functions for analyzing and manipulating chemical structures and related molecular objects. SVL is a concise, <a href="/facts/High-level_language/smjECUhx">high-level language</a> whose programs are typically 10 times smaller than their equivalent when compared to <a href="/facts/C_/Ky2No763">C</a> or <a href="/facts/Fortran/m1KqjcMU">Fortran</a>. SVL <a href="/facts/Source_code/o9J6Jv23">source code</a> is compiled to a "<a href="/facts/Byte_code/EPkMFR7M">byte code</a>" representation, which is then executed by the base <a href="/facts/Run-time_environment/YmCuC4xP">run-time environment</a> making SVL programs inherently portable across different computer hardware and <a href="/facts/Operating_system/8XTuvMh2">operating systems</a>.
