What is the easiest programming language to write algorithms in?

Question

Algorithms

As a rule, programming languages ​​are intended and studied for the development of software, websites, etc., but what if the goal is not the above, but the ease and clarity of writing algorithms for mathematical problems, are there programming languages ​​originally oriented for these purposes?
Moreover, the language is needed not in the sense of the speed of calculations, although this is also important, but primarily in relation to the construction and readability of the algorithm code.
In general, it turns out, a purely academic language for solving problems in mathematics (and not only)

Answer 1

Pseudocode

Answer 2

Matlab, MathCAD, Mathematica, Maple, forth, Fartran, Pascal

Answer 3

No Turing complete language is designed for any particular purpose, let alone writing websites. The question of perception and understanding of the source code lies in the ability to program as such. If reading is difficult, then look for ready-made visual aids. If you are ready to delve into it, then Python, R, F #, C ++ are very serious tools. And so above the person already gave the list.

Answer 4

SML (Standard ML). It has many independent implementations. Similar to Haskell, but non-lazy by default and allows side effects (including a ref type for mutable variables, which is convenient for implementing some algorithms. More readable and logical than OCaml.
If the algorithms are essentially computational and array-oriented, you should take a look at Julia .
