Programming Language

  The BASIC interpreter was attached to KDOS at the Multistation.
  However, naturally no software development of kinds can be performed only now.
  Language and development support software were prepared besides this.

  Programming language for foreign country language


  Programing Language
    There were various assemblers, a compiler, and an interpreter.

  About FORTRAN Compiler
    It is in the present hand (there is no manual).
    2 path compiler of FORTRAN77 specification, it compiles by FOR1 and FOR2.
    The batch file of the sample for compiling by diskette drive sticks.

  About COBOL Compiler
    It is in a place of work.
    1 path compiler of COBOL74 specification.
    The function of SORT/MERGE or REPORT is also attached.
    At the time of execution, run time is needed apart from an object.

  About Macro Assembler
    It is in the present hand (there is no manual).
    There are two, MASM which is a macro assembler, and ASM without a macro function.

  About RPG II
    RPG is a language for office work and it was developed for "the system/3" of the mid
    range system of IBM.
    A program is created by entering a parameter in the decided specific beam of a style
    unlike the usual language.
    In a finite program like a report, there is several times as much productivity as other
    languages.

  About APL
    APL is the general-purpose language developed for the main frame systems of IBM.
    The special sign called APL character is used.
    There are the features of otherwise interpreting an imperative sentence from right-hand
    side, like that a program can be written by one line and it is fit for procession operation.
