Tcl
Programming Languages
Tcl (Tool Command Language) is a dynamic, high-level scripting language created in the late 1980s by John Ousterhout, known for its simple syntax and strong embeddability into other applications. It's commonly used for rapid prototyping, test automation (notably in EDA/chip design tools), and building GUIs via its companion toolkit Tk.
