MUMPS(ID:773/mum004)

Associative nested array language

alternate simple view

Country: United States
Designed 1969
Published: 1969
Genus: Nested Array
Sammet category: String and List Processing

for Massachusetts [General Hospital] Utility Multi-Programming System

Greenes Pappalardo Marble Barnett Laboratory of Computer Science, Massachusetts General Hospital, Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School 1969

A database-oriented OS and the language that goes with it. Used originally for medical records. Only data type is the character string. Persistent associative arrays.

A pretty simple command oriented, general purpose, procedural language with a fairly powerful string handling and multi-dimensional associative arrays and a very powerful built-in database.

Also used for managing data and communicating information between widely disparate units within an organization.

An ANSI standard language since 1975
