Abstract:

A method is described for the introduction into the Fortran 63 language of a special operator for differentiation which would be executed when encountered during compilation. The original expression would be extracted from the Fortran equation and replaced by its symbolic derivative the translation process would then proceed in the normal manner. A model algebraic translator, written in Fortran 63, is described and test results are presented. Author
