PL/I DEFINITION (continued): … PL/I is a third-generation (3GL) programming languagedeveloped in the early 1960s as an alternative to assembler language (for low-level computer processing functions), COBOL (for large-scale business applications), and FORTRAN (for scientific and algorithmic applications). PL/I stands for "Programming Language 1".
