A natural language processing system identifies an action element, a target element, and command element(s) in a text natural language command. For each identified command element, in the order it appears in the text natural language command, the natural language processing system accesses a playlist access matrix according to a matrix access counter to identify a playlist pointer associated with that command element, determines whether that playlist pointer indicates its associated command element is a best match relative to any other command elements that have already been considered and, if so, updates a playlist entry identifier with that playlist pointer and increments the matrix access counter. When all of the command elements have been considered, the natural language processing system uses the playlist entry identifier to identify a computing language command in a command playlist, and executes the computing language command on the target element based on the action element.
