Abstract
J.C. Reynolds has pointed out that ALGOL 60 has a set of properties not shared by most of the languages usually regarded as being its successors. We propose to use this ALGOL-like framework to design a language that could adequately support both applicative and imperative programming while also retaining the advantages of each of the “pure” frameworks. This paper discusses elementary data-structuring facilities (products, arrays, sums) for such a language, taking advantage of recent developments, such as this author's “quantification” notation, and the notion of “conjunctive type” proposed by Coppo and Dezani, and adapted to explicitly-typed languages by Reynolds.
