Hi Bob,
being a little bit under time pressure (setting up the tutorials) just a
hint: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming_language>.
(Note it is missing Rexx or ooRexx in the list of dynamic languages,
probably because the authors have never heard of it. Also some of the
listed languages are statically typed, Rexx/ooRexx are dynamically
typed.)

is "frequently changing", but that doesn't seem to fit; it sounds like

mean something much more specific, rather as "object-oriented" means a
very
particular thing in coding.

The 35th International Rexx Symposium in Brisbane, Australia, is about
to
start with tutorials this Sunday (tomorrow), March 3rd....
Working with the easy to learn, to read, to use and to maintain dynamic
programming language family of Rexx has always been fun and a real
benefit
and critical success factor.
A professional programmer not having a dynamic language in his
workbench
portfolio can simply not solve certain problems with the ease and speed
of a
dynamic language. So all static programming language fans, this is an
opportunity to get a glimpse of how easy and how powerful a dynamic
language, especially from the Rexx family of programming languages, can
be!
