Visual Programming Languages (VPLs) are programming languages that allow users to create programs by manipulating graphical elements rather than writing text-based code. This approach makes programming more accessible, especially for beginners, as it often resembles building blocks or flowcharts. Users can drag and drop components to design their applications visually. VPLs are commonly used in educational settings and for rapid application development. They enable users to focus on the logic and structure of their programs without getting bogged down by syntax errors. Examples of VPLs include Scratch, Blockly, and LabVIEW, which cater to different audiences and applications.
