Introduction to the programming language convert
Abstract
We present an introductory description of Convert, a programming language applicable to symbol manipulation problems whose solution may be expressed in terms of transformation rules. We discuss the experience derived from our use of the language and mention some future applications.

Experiences with a simple structured programming language
SIGCSE '74: Proceedings of the fourth SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science educationA great deal of interest has developed in structured programming [Dahl, Dijkstra, and Hoare, 1972] during the past few years. This paper is concerned with some experiences obtained in the use of a structured programming language in the computer science ...
