Fourth generation languages are close to natural language and were built with the concept that certain applications could be generalised by adding limited programming ability to them.

Some examples of 4GL are: database query language e.g.SQL; Focus, Metafont, PostScript, S, IDL-PV, WAVE, Gauss, Mathematica, and data-stream languages such as AVS, APE, Iris Explorer.
