Description: Please see photos for condition and content. The summary of this publication is a detailed analysis of changes being proposed by the American National Standards Committee within early FORTRAN. As you might expect, anything vintage with computers will use acronyms. First is SIGPLAN: The ACM Special Interest Group on Programming Languages (SIGPLAN) explores programming language concepts and tools, focusing on design, implementation, practice, and theory. Its members are programming language developers, educators, implementers, researchers, theoreticians, and users.. Next is SIGACT: SIGACT is an international organization that fosters and promotes the discovery and dissemination of high quality research in theoretical computer science (TCS), the formal analysis of efficient computation and computational processes. Next is ACM: Association for Computing Machinery: the world's largest educational and scientific computing society, delivers resources that advance computing as a science and a profession. Next is FORTRAN; Fortran is a general-purpose, compiled imperative programming language that is especially suited to numeric computation and scientific computing. Fortran was originally developed by IBM in the 1950s for scientific and engineering applications, and subsequently came to dominate scientific computing This item is from my brother-in-law's personal library.
