Turing(ID:1023/tur003)

alternate simple view
Country: Canada
Designed 1982
Published: 1982
Genus: Other Wirth Algols
Sammet category: Multi-purpose

for Alan Turing, computer pioneer

from the documentation:
"TURING is a super Pascal with a no frills syntax and an airtight formal definition"

R.C. Holt  & J.R. Cordy, U Toronto, 1982.

Descendant of Concurrent Euclid, an airtight super-Pascal. Used mainly for teaching programming at both high school and university level. Available from Holt Software Assocs, Toronto.

Turing, a new general purpose programming language, is designed to have Basic's clean interactive syntax, Pascal's elegance, and C's flexibility
