Q stands for equational programming language. It is an interpreted, interactive functional programming language created by Albert Gräf at the University of Mainz in Germany. Q programs are just collections of equations which are used to evaluate expressions in a symbolic fashion. Q has many similarities with other modern functional programming languages like Haskell and ML, but is based on general term rewriting (a method of computation also used...
