DCL, or Data Control Language, is a programming language primarily used in the context of database management systems. It serves as a critical component of SQL (Structured Query Language), designed to manage access rights to database objects such as tables, views, and procedures. DCL provides commands that allow database administrators to control who can view or manipulate data, thus ensuring data security and integrity.

Dylan is a multi-paradigm programming language that was designed to combine the best features of functional and object-oriented programming. Developed in the early 1990s by Gregory R. Smith and other members of the project team at Apple Computer, Dylan was conceived as a language for high-level application development, emphasizing both productivity and performance.

Delphi is an integrated development environment (IDE) and programming language originally developed by Borland and first released in 1995. Designed primarily for rapid application development (RAD), Delphi enables developers to create high-performance desktop, mobile, web, and database applications with ease. It is based on the Object Pascal programming language, which is an extension of Pascal that incorporates object-oriented programming features, making it both powerful and accessible.

Dart is a modern, object-oriented programming language developed by Google, first released in 2011. Designed primarily for building mobile, desktop, server, and web applications, Dart aims to provide a more efficient and productive development experience compared to other languages. Its development was motivated by the need for a language that could facilitate high-performance applications while maintaining readability and ease of use.

D is a systems programming language that combines the performance and efficiency of low-level programming languages like C and C++ with the productivity and ease of use found in higher-level languages. Created by Walter Bright and first released in 2001, D aims to be a modern alternative for system-level programming, offering features that facilitate both rapid development and high performance.

CoffeeScript is a programming language that compiles into JavaScript, designed to enhance the readability and simplicity of the code. Developed by Jeremy Ashkenas, it was first released in 2009 as a way to address some of the syntactical challenges associated with JavaScript. The primary goal of CoffeeScript is to make it easier for developers to write clean and concise code while retaining the flexibility of JavaScript.

CUDA, which stands for Compute Unified Device Architecture, is a parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) model created by NVIDIA. First introduced in 2006, CUDA enables developers to leverage the power of NVIDIA graphics processing units (GPUs) for general-purpose computing, often referred to as GPGPU (General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units).

Chapel is a programming language designed to support high-performance computing (HPC) while addressing the growing demands of parallelism and concurrency in modern computing environments. Developed by Cray Inc. in the early 2000s, Chapel aims to provide a productive and scalable programming model for programmers working with large-scale parallel systems, such as supercomputers and distributed computing platforms.

Curry is a functional programming language that emphasizes the use of functional programming principles and features, particularly in the context of logic programming and type systems. Developed by Haskell Curry, a mathematician and logician in the 20th century, Curry was designed to explore and implement concepts related to functional programming, particularly in relation to combinatory logic.

Ceylon is a programming language that was designed to improve modularity and productivity in software development, particularly within the Java ecosystem. Developed by Red Hat, the language was first introduced in 2011 by Gavin King, who is also known for his work on Hibernate, a popular object-relational mapping tool for Java. Ceylon aimed to address some of the shortcomings of Java, particularly in terms of its type system and modular capabilities, thereby enhancing the overall development experience.
