Natural (4GL).:About Natural.
The system is the central vehicle of communication between the user and all other components of the processing environment. 
 The language is structured and less procedural than conventional languages. 
 Natural objects (programs, maps, data areas, etc.) are stored in libraries, similar in structure to a DOS directory, and can be named with identifiers up to 8 characters. 
 Objects, even if they are of different types, cannot have the same name. 
 Natural provides both online and batch execution and programming testing utilities.
