NDLI: Floating point sub-language of a string language (APLQ, Vol. 3, Issue. 2-3)

Content Provider	ACM Digital Library
Author	Kagan, Claude A. R.
Abstract	The facilities for floating point computation within the framework of a string language currently operating on the PDP-10 at the Western Electric Company Engineering Research Center are considered to be a sublanguage. This sublanguage is accessed through use of the * (asterisk) as a function marker in lieu of the colon, and such use causes execution of all of the available arithmetic functions as well as a family of additional functions whose names are the same as those used in Fortran. The list of functions that will execute in this sublanguage is displayed through execution of ** (LF), expression.
