Hi WhenToysGoToWar,
Well, CMS itself is written in "C", but the CMS syntax, the functions that it executes, the notation, etc. are just "figments of my imagination", really. The logical and mathematical functions are the usual stuff, the syntax for the functions and how things work isn't really based on anything in particular, just things I've seen as being useful over the years.
Best regards,
