This paper gives a brief description and motivation of the mode analyzing and data-
structuring extensions to the algebraic language REDUCE. These include generic functions,
user defined recursive data structures, mode transfer functions and user modifiable
automatic coercion. A number of examples are given to illustrate the style and features of the
language, and how it will aid in the construction of more efficient and reliable programs.
