SNOBOL is a string manipulation language especially well suited to the processing of non-numeric data. It provides a powerful means for searching through arbitrary character strings in order to find patterns, to rearrange the string and to form new strings. SNOBOL is especially useful to those in the humanities and social sciences who could make use of a computer in their research. Uncomplicated statement format, string-oriented input-output editing aids, dynamic storage - all those features enable researchers to devote their major efforts to the problem at hand rather than to details in the programming languages once they have mastered the first principles.
SNOBOL has been used in conjunction with research in a number of fields such as linguistics, constructions of psychological models, cryptanalysis, music, theorem proving, and developing of bibliographies, and indexes.
