A '''very high-level programming language''' ('''VHLL''') is a [[programming language]] with a very high level of [[Abstraction (computer science)|abstraction]], used primarily as a professional programmer productivity tool.{{Citation needed | date=April 2016|reason=Seems strange, as all programming languages are highly goal-oriented.}}<br />
<br />
VHLLs are usually [[domain-specific language]]s, limited to a very specific application, purpose, or type of task, and they are often [[scripting language]]s (especially extension languages), controlling a specific environment. For this reason, very high-level programming languages are often referred to as goal-oriented programming languages.{{Citation needed | date=April 2016|reason=Seems strange, as all programming languages are highly goal-oriented.}}<br />
<br />
The term VHLL was used in the 1990s for what are today more often called [[high-level programming language]]s (not "very") used for scripting, such as [[Perl]], [[Python (programming language)|Python]], [[PHP]], [[Ruby (programming language)|Ruby]], and [[Visual Basic]].<ref><br />
