The first AI programming language was called:

A. BASIC

B. FORTRAN

C. IPL

D. LISP

E. None of the above

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

IPL (Information Processing Language) was indeed the first AI programming language developed by Allen Newell, Cliff Shaw, and Herbert Simon in the late 1950s at the RAND Corporation. IPL was designed for symbolic manipulation and list processing, making it well-suited for early artificial intelligence research. While LISP (Option D) is a notable AI programming language developed shortly after IPL, it wasn't the first. BASIC (Option A) and FORTRAN (Option B) were general-purpose programming languages, not specifically designed for AI. Hence, the correct answer is Option C: IPL.
