# Programming Language Theory
Programming language theory (PLT) is a branch of computer science that deals with the design, implementation, analysis, characterization, and classification of programming languages and their individual features.

* [On the Expressive Power of Programming Languages](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/016764239190036W) (Matthias Felleisen): "The literature on programming languages contains an abundance of informal
claims on the relative expressive power of programming languages, but there
is no framework for formalizing such statements nor for deriving interesting
consequences. As a first step in this direction, we develop a formal notion
of expressiveness and investigate its properties. To demonstrate the theory's
closeness to published intuitions on expressiveness, we analyze the expressive
power of several extensions of functional languages. Based on these results,
we believe that our system correctly captures many of the informal ideas on
expressiveness, and that it constitutes a good basis for further research in this
direction. " (abstract)
