SLIP PRELIMINARY INSTRUCTIONAL MANUAL,

Abstract

SLIP is a collection of a hundred subroutines which enables the programmer to use list processing techniques within a FORTRAN system, in this case FORTRAN 63. SLIP is an acronym for Symmetric List Processor, a system developed by Joseph Weizenbaum of the General Electric Computer Laboratory. In this system, each list cell contains both a link to the preceding cell and a link to the succeeding cell. This preliminary instruction manual is intended as a guide to the programmer to enable him to use the SLIP system as modified for FORTRAN 63. Each subroutine is presented along with an explanation of its use. Relevant explanations of the SLIP system are added as the various subroutines are encountered. The SLIP system is now operational on Kirtland's 1604 computer and the subroutines have been added to the FORTRAN 63 library tape. (Author)
