Solution

The correct option is A 1962

Symbolic languages were developed in 1962.

In computer programming, symbolic programming is a programming paradigm in which the program can manipulate its own formulas and program components as if they were plain data. Languages that support symbolic programming include Wolfram Language, LISP and Prolog.

APL (named after the book A Programming Language) is a programming language developed in the 1960s by Kenneth E. Iverson. Its central datatype is the multidimensional array. It uses a large range of special graphic symbols to represent most functions and operators, leading to very concise code. It has been an important influence on the development of concept modeling, spreadsheets, functional programming, and computer math packages. It has also inspired several other programming languages.
