Easy Programming Language (EPL, ) is a visual compiled multilingual proprietary programming language. EPL is somewhat popular in China because it features a full Chinese environment. The language has traditional Chinese, simplified Chinese, English and Japanese variants. The language has been shown to improve coding productivity for programmers who are not as fluent in English, albeit with less runtime efficiency.
In addition, it is cross-platform, as it currently supports both Microsoft Windows and Linux. It is object-oriented and structured.
