A syntax directed compiler for ALGOL 60
Special 25th Anniversary Issue
Although one generally thinks of a compiler as a program for a computer which translates some object language into a target language, in fact this program also serves to define the object language in terms of the target language. In early compilers, ...
ALGOL 60 confidential

The ALGOL 60 Report,^* when first encountered, seems to describe a very complex language which will be difficult to learn. The “metalinguistic formulae” admirably serve the purpose of precisely specifying a language, but they are certainly not very ...
