Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book describes a novel computer programming language system known as BALM, an extendable list-processing language that incorporates features of LISP and permits writing in an Algol-like language. BALM was inspired by a desire to make list-processing more accessible to a wider audience in a way that was more user-friendly than LISP. The language was designed with extensibility in mind, allowing users to define new operators and specify how expressions should be translated. Thus, BALM serves not only as a powerful tool for list processing, but also as a flexible platform for experimenting with new language features and ideas. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the BALM system, including detailed descriptions of its data types, operators, and syntax. It also discusses the implementation of the language, making it a valuable resource for computer scientists interested in the design and implementation of programming languages. Overall, this book offers a unique and valuable contribution to the field of computer science, providing a comprehensive guide to a powerful and extensible programming language system that has the potential to revolutionize the way we think about list processing and language design.
