Bio-informatics programming languages

• A comparison of common bioinformatics languages
• Projects Page of the Open Bioinformatics foundation. The following projects may be of particular interest:
  • BioPython
  • BioJava
  • BioSQL : Relational database extensions for bioinformatics
  • BlipKit: Chris Mungall's Prolog toolkit for Bioinformatics and BioMedical Informatics. May be a starting point for any research using Datalog
• BioCaml: OCaml extensions to bioinformatics. Seems to be a dead project currently.
