BALGOL(ID:371/bal004)

Burroughs Algorithmic Language 

alternate simple view
Country: United States
Designed 1958
Published: 1958
Genus: True Algol58s
Sammet category: Numerical Scientific

Algebraic Language one pass compiler for the Burroughs 220.

Called ALGOL but as a pre-emptive measure, as it was produced before IAL report even came out.
