ALGOL 58(ID:17/alg018)

Algorithmic Language

Country: International
Designed 1958

Genus: True Algol58s
Sammet category: Numerical Scientific

The release name for the International Algebraic Language

The language is suitable for expressing a large class of numerical processor in a form sufficiently concise for direct automatic translation into the language of programmed automatic computers.  The algorithmic language has three different kinds of representations - reference, hardware, and publication, and the development described is in terms of the language are represented by a given set of symbols and it is only in the choice of symbols that the other two representations may differ. Structure and content must be the same for all representations.
