LISP70(ID:2175/lis012)

LISP dialect, a descendant of MLISP and MLISP2.

Useful for parsing. Only the pattern-matching system was published and fully implemented. According to Alan Kay, LISP70 had an influence on Smalltalk-72.

"An overview of nonprocedural languages" pp1-12 view details Abstract: This paper attempts to describe some of the basic characteristics and issues involving the class of programming languages commonly referred to as ?nonprocedural? or ?very high level?. The paper discusses major issues such as terminology, relativeness, and arbitrary sequencing. Five features of nonprocedural languages are described, and a number of specific languages are discussed briefly. A short history of the subject is included.

    A more recent extension to LISP emphasizing the role of pattern directed structures is embodied in the LISP 70 language developed at Stanford (Tesler etal., 1973).

The 'function-class' specifies the function's input procedure, input requirement, output requirement and output procedure. It includes the argument evaluation process in its input procedure part, and the output value type in its output requirement part. But it has other components which can describe the function's behavior in more detail. The 'function-class' can be represented in a declarative form, i.e. in a calculus form using *, +, and − operators. The function can also be defined in a declarative form. This format increases the readability of the program. The feasibility of the 'function class' is considered in the context of its implementation in LISP-like environments. The 'function-class' idea is not restricted to LISP language, although it has been originally developed in the LISP-1.9 context. There are several utilizations including program checking and optimized compilation.
