No copies found in OCLC. - First publication of the Report of IFIP TC 2 to the General Assembly in the matter of the Algoritmic Language ALGOL 68, a procedural programming language, designed in 1968 as an intended successor to Algol 60, by a working group led by Aad van Wijngaarden (1916-1987). ALGOL 68 was designed by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) IFIP Working Group 2.1 on Algorithmic Languages and Calculi. On December 20, 1968, the language was formally adopted by the group, and then approved for publication by the General Assembly of IFIP. ALGOL 68 was defined using a formalism, a two-level formal grammar, invented by Adriaan van Wijngaarden. Van Wijngaarden grammars use a context-free grammar to generate an infinite set of productions that will recognize a particular ALGOL 68 program. Condition : very good copy.
