	BCPL - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		BCPL (Basic Combined Programming Language) is a computer programming language that was designed by Martin Richards of the University of Cambridge in 1966; it was originally intended for use in writing compilers for other languages.
		BCPL was a response to difficulties with its predecessor CPL, created during the early 1960s; Richards created BCPL by "removing those features of the full language which make compilation difficult".
		BCPL was also the initial language used in the seminal Xerox PARC Alto project, the first modern personal computer; among many other influential projects, the ground-breaking Bravo document preparation system was written in BCPL.

		BCPL is low-level, typeless and block-structured, and provides only one-dimensional arrays.
		BCPL was used to implement the TRIPOS operating system, which was subsequently reincarnated as AmigaDOS.
		A BCPL compiler bootstrap kit with an INTCODE interpreter in C was written by Ken Yap ken@syd.dit.csiro.au.

		Objects are typeless in BCPL, in as much as their type is inferred from the context in which they are used (i.e., in a redirection context an object is assumed to be an address, and in an arithmetic it is assumed to be a signed integer). ;
		BCPL is similar to C in that is all arguments are passed by value, although the language tokens are much more wordy than C and is has local functions.
		I think the BCPL grammar and lexical structure is a mess, but I came to it after learning C, so I am not really in a position to give an unbiased opinion.

	BCPL Reference Manual (1967)
		BCPL has had a productive life of its own, but my interest in it is more in the basis it provided for the development of the B language and then in the history of C.
		As it tells, the BCPL language definition when B was developed was just the manual recorded here, together with the compiler that Richards contemporaneously wrote for the CTSS system.
		Richards's first BCPL compiler was written using the 6-bit BCD character set on CTSS, and adapted shortly thereafter to use the characters available on the IBM "golf-ball" 1050 and 2741 terminals.

	Chistory
		BCPL was designed by Martin Richards in the mid-1960s while he was visiting MIT, and was used during the early 1970s for several interesting projects, among them the OS6 operating system at Oxford [Stoy 72], and parts of the seminal Alto work at Xerox PARC [Thacker 79].
		Finally, the B and BCPL model implied overhead in dealing with pointers: the language rules, by defining a pointer as an index in an array of words, forced pointers to be represented as word indices.
		The solution constituted the crucial jump in the evolutionary chain between typeless BCPL and typed C. It eliminated the materialization of the pointer in storage, and instead caused the creation of the pointer when the array name is mentioned in an expression.

	A brief(ish) description of BCPL (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		I first encountered BCPL when I was at Cambridge University, the home of the language and its designer, Martin Richards.
		BCPL was the systems programming language of choice at Cambridge, because it generated code better than the IBM Fortran compilers while not requiring the agony of Assembler.
		BCPL implementations are available from Martin Richards, or from the old BCPL distribution.

		BCPL (Basic Combined Programming Language) is a computer programming language that was designed by Martin Richards of the University of Cambridge (1966) as a response to difficulties with its predecessor CPL during the 1960s.
		A major reason for BCPL's portability lay in the structure of its compiler.
		The front end parsed the source and generated O-code for a virtual machine; the backend took the O-code and translated it into the code for the target machine.
