	ALGOL - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		ALGOL (short for ALGOrithmic Language) is a family of imperative computer programming languages originally developed in the mid 1950s which became the de facto standard way to report algorithms in print for almost the next 30 years.
		ALGOL 60 allowed for two types of parameter passing: the common call-by-value, and the unique call-by-name, which has never again been adopted by any of its successor languages.
		ALGOL 68 was defined using a two-level grammar formalism invented by Adriaan van Wijngaarden and which bears his name.

	The ALGOL Programming Language (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In ALGOL 60 the block structure was introduced: the ability to create blocks of statements for the scope of variables and the extent of influence of control statements.
		ALGOL was used mostly by research computer scientists in the United States and in Europe.
		ALGOL 60 did however become the standard for the publication of algorithms and had a profound effect on future language development.

	ALGOL W - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It was Niklaus Wirth's proposal for a successor to ALGOL 60 in the ALGOL 68 committee.
		Algol-W is clearly a transitionary stage between ALGOL 60 and Pascal (created later by Wirth also).
		It represented a relatively conservative modification of ALGOL 60; to ALGOL 60 Wirth added string, bitstring, complex number and reference to record datatypes and a call-by-result parameter passing mechanism but changed little else.

		ALGOL originated in a joint resolution by several user groups (qv), including SHARE (qv), USE (qv), and DUO (qv) on May 10, 1957, to “transcend the characteristics” of particular machines architectures, and develop a language to facilitate communication across those architectures.
		ALGOL was also found wanting because, as one of the ALGOL 60 final report authors put it, “ALGOL is like the Bible, to be interpreted and not understood.” ALGOL, in effect, remained more an abstruse report than a working language.
		ALGOL brought together many of the leading programmers in Europe and America for the first time, stimulated the publication and dissemination of important algorithms to the computer science community, and created new life for compiler (qv) design.

		ALGOL (short for ALGOrithmic Language) is a programming language originally developed in the mid 1950s which became the de facto standard way to report algorithms in print for almost the next 30 years.
		It is sometimes erroneously attributed to Edsger Dijkstra, also known for his pointed comments, who helped to implement the first ALGOL 60 compiler.
		The Burroughs Corporation's B5000 and its successors were stack machines designed to be programmed in an extended variant of ALGOL 60, known as Elliot ALGOL; indeed their operating system, or MCP (Master Control Program) as they are called, was written in Elliot ALGOL as far back as 1961.

		In Algol 50, the consequents of the clauses of the conditional expression are in 1-1 correspondence with the statements of the corresponding Algol 60 program.
		The (operational) semantics of the Algol 60 program is then given by the sentence expressing the corresponding Algol 50 program together with the axioms describing the data domain, which in this case would be the Peano axioms for natural numbers.
		We have not carried the Algol 50 idea far enough to verify that all of Algol 60 is conveniently representable in the same style, but no fundamental difficulties are apparent.

		ALGOL (ALGOrithmic Language), or to be more precise, ALGOL 60, was designed by a large committee of computer scientists in 1960 as a language for the description of algorithms or processes.
		Algol was conceived as a language for communicating programs rather than as a practical programming language, and unfortuanly this was reflected by an almost total neglect of input/output in the defining report.
		ALGOL was poular in the 1960's, but more recent developmemts have made this language obselete, but it hasn't died, it has just faded away.

		"The Essence of Algol" was originally presented as an invited address to a symposium in tribute to Adriaan van Wijngaarden, one of the designers of both Algol 60 and Algol 68, on the occasion of his retirement.
		The essence of Algol is not a straitjacket.
		He formulates a functor-category model for a parallel version of Idealized Algol; the use of a functor category shows that the shape of the store is the same in the initial and final states in the evaluation of any command.

		ALGOL 60 was defined in the classic paper ``Revised Report on the Algorithmic Language ALGOL 60'', which appeared (among other places) in the January, 1963 issue of Communications of the ACM (pages 1-17).
		We have used a more modern form of BNF notation in which the quoting conventions are reversed: The Revised Report uses angle brackets to quote nonterminal symbols, and leaves terminal symbols unquoted; we leave nonterminal symbols unquoted and use apostrophes to quote terminal symbols.
		ALGOL 60 places a number of context conditions on expressions, and those conditions are defined formally in this document.

		ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG6 Algol was established in the 1970s by SC22's predecessor committee, ISO TC97/SC5, and was inherited by the new SC22 when it started work in 1985.
		Algol 60, along with Cobol, was one of the first programming languages for which a standardization project was undertaken by SC5 when it was founded in the early 1960s, and indeed had already been discussed by TC97 with IFIP, the International Federation for Information Processing, whose WG2.1 was responsible for the language.
		At the five-year ISO review in 1989 SC22 resolved that the Algol 60 standard should be withdrawn, and the Technical Report on hardware representation, not included in that review, was withdrawn in 1991.

		In recent years there has been a remarkable convergence of interest in programming languages based on ALGOL 60.
		Researchers interested in the theory of procedural and object-oriented languages discovered that ALGOL 60 shows how to add procedures and object classes to simple imperative languages in a general and efficient manner.
		And, on the other hand, researchers interested in purely functional languages discovered that ALGOL 60 shows how to add imperative mechanisms to functional languages in a way that does not compromise their desirable properties.
