ALGOL 60: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:39, 9 January 2015

Description

Historically important programming language, descendants include Pascal, C, C++, Modula-2, BCPL, PL/I, Oberon, Java, Simula and Smalltalk

Algol-W

By now mostly forgotten, but at the time a superior implementation of ALGOL available for the IBM System 360. Source code for the Stanford distribution can be found here

Other variations of the language include the Japanese ALGOL-N a simplified subset of Algol-68 that was quite popular in Asia in the 1970's in particular on Japanese computer hardware.
