Vlerq

Vlerq is a research project for data structures.

It ignores conventional wisdom and introduces another way of
representing and manipulating data in software. The implications are
quite far-reaching, and exciting as well as frustrating.

Vlerq is an acronym which describes the idea:

     * Take Vectors
     * Add a Language
     * Make it Embeddable
     * Use the Relational model
     * Include a Query mechanism

Whether the result is worth leaving everything behind for is something
only time will tell.

Speaking of relations, what is the relation between Tcl and Vlerq?

''Vlerq is the basis of [Ratcl] & Rasql, two work-in-progress extensions for Tcl -[jcw]''

[Tclkit Lite] is another development based on Vlerq.

[MHo] 2021-02-27: Where can one find some documentation about vlerq? Seems everyone is knowing about and using it, but nearly every link I found was a dead link or not leading to usable infos. The same is true for Mk4tcl - does it mean it isn't popular any more?

[APN] Not sure what you mean by popular but tclkits are primarily based on this tech. Re. jcw's web site you may find it at https://web.archive.org/web/20181207154649/https://equi4.com/%|%archived%|%on the wayback site.
[MHo]: Yes I know. But the only documentation there for vlerq is that:
