Abstract: A programming language designed to be used on personal computers is described. It is a simple language but suitable for relatively complex applications such as game developing, bookkeeping, simple engineering computations or learning how to program. The description includes locations, units, commands, expressions, targets, tests and static checks. The syntax uses a VW grammar as in the Algol 68 revised report.

Abstract: The B language is a powerful, easy-to-learn and easy-to-use
interactive programming language, designed as a modern alternative to BASIC. An informal introduction to the language is given.

Abstract: The programming language B has been designed for personal
computing. In B, variables need not be declared, nor formal parameters specified. Nevertheless, B is strongly typed. All type requirements can be checked statistically. To signal type violations on the sot during editing, the computations can be organized so that local modifications to the source text require a modest amount of recomputation.
