Three programming languages named L are:
- A programming language started by Larry McVoy, with extensive help from Jeffrey Hobbs, Oscar Bonilla, and Tim Daly, Jr. It aims to wrap C-like syntax around core Tcl functionality.[1]
- A capability-secure and distributed language, developed by HP Labs. It is a derivative of lambda calculus, hence it is small, block-structured, dynamically-typed, and functional. It is both a language and an operating environment, like Smalltalk. It is capability-secure and distributed, like E.[2]
- A theoretical language with three (or four) instruction types used to discuss computability in Martin Davis' Comptability, complexity and Languages (ISBN 9780122063824)
