Abstract:

The SIMPL-Q system consists of a system computer programming language SIMPL-Q and a simple macro language SML. The SIMPL-Q compiler and SML execute on either the CDC-6700 under the SCOPE 3.4 operating system or on the Nanodata QM-1 under the EASY-II operating system. The code produced by the SIMPL-Q system is designed to execute on the Nanodata QM-1 EASY intermediate language machine. The SIMPL-Q language is a member of the SIMPL-T family of languages. SIMPL-T was designed and implemented on the UNIVAC 1108 by Victor R. Basili and Albert J. Turner. SIMPL-T is a transportable structured programming language with three basic data types integer, character, and string. SIMPL-T was enhanced to allow it to be used as a system programming language for the Nanodata QM-1, hence the name SIMPL-Q. This report, which is intended to be used as a reference manual, presents the details, rules, and examples for writing programs in the SIMPL-Q language. It also contains sufficient information to prepare and compile such programs.
