Abstract

This report contains a description of the programming language PL/2100, which is a procedure oriented, block structured language with an extensive set of operators, including arithmetic, relational, logical, bit manipulation and shift operators. It is designed for writing PL/2100 programs that conform to the standard of structured programming and for efficiently expressing and implementing algorithms written in it. This report, also, contains a description of the one-pass working compiler (HPCOM) (for PL/2100) written for the HP/2100A minicomputer.
