for Computer On-line Realtime Applications Language

Real-time system programming language, a derivative of JOVIAL and ALGOL-60.

CORAL 66 was a major overhaul of CORAL, based on revised ALGOL 60, and improved maths

"1966 by I. F. Currie and M. Griffiths of the Royal Radar Establishment in response to the need for a compiler on a fixed-point computer in a control environment"

Strongly associated with MASCOT, a design technique for real time systems.
Adopted as the British military standard from 1970 until the arrival of Ada.
