About GNU SETL

OM

SETL is a general-purpose, high-level programming language in which sets and first-order mappings are fundamental to the syntax and semantics of the language. This lends great conciseness and readability to a wide range of applications, from basic data filtering and transformation to the abstract presentation of complex algorithms. SETL is particularly good for software prototyping.

GNU SETL comprises extensions to the SETL language and core “library”, and an implementation. The project’s main goal has always been to offer a setl command that lets SETL play well in the Unix (POSIX) world of processes, pipes, filters, sockets, and programs written in other languages.
