		ALAN J. Although Perlis's interests in computer science were extraor- dinarily broad, he maintained throughout his career a focus on programming languages.
		During the 1960s, Perlis was involved in the definition of extensions to ALGOL, such as Formula ALGOL for manipulating formal mathematical ex- pressions, and LCC, a form of ALGOL for interactive incremen- tal programming.
		Perlis was not content to be a builder of two important computer science departments and a leader in the design and study of new computer languages; as mentioned previously, he also played a major role in the formation of the ACM and was the founding editor of the Communications of the ACM.

		Creating a Technology of Software Development In Introduction to Computer Science, Alan Perlis, one of the early pioneers of computer science, observed that the nature of computer programming is too often misunderstood.
		Perlis wrote: "First, the increase in the population trained to use tools and in the number of tools available for their use implies that the potential for tool utility grows as a product rather than as a sum.
		Perlis had observed that the technical progress of a society was marked by the development of tools and the ever developing set of people capable of wielding those tools.
