if they are scientists you may want to look at a functional language
like F# as well.

Subject: [ADVANCED-DOTNET] User scripting for a .NET app


We need to add the ability for users to execute scripts for our
application, which runs a scientific tool. The users will be scientist,
not professional programmers. A few years ago I would have used the
Active Scripting objects and supported JScript scripts accessing our
app's object model.

Our new application is all .NET based so it seems the Active Scripting
method is a little out of date (but could still be used if that is the
best choice). I found the Microsoft.Vsa objects which are the
replacement for Active Scripting but they are marked 'obsolete'.

What is the best method for supporting scripting of a .NET application
by users?
