APL to Ada translator

Abstract: PurposeThe purpose of this programming effort is to build a r&able, automatic, special-purpose translator from APL code into Ada code.'The goal is to enable an algorithm designer to prototype an algorithm rapidly, debug it, and test it in APL (specifically, APL2); then to translate it quickly, compile it, and execute it in the Ada environment. This gives the dual advantages of the quick and easy development and debugging capabilities of APL2 and the large-project maintainability of the Ada environment. An addi… Show more

“…45 The APL acceptable to this translator had to be highly stylized, but it nevertheless turned out to be useful in an important prototyping application. The translator was written in APL2, and had the limited goal of allowing an algorithm designer to prototype rapidly in APL and, after debugging there, translate the program to Ada for compilation and running in that environment.…”
