A Report on AMBIT/G. Volume 1

Abstract

AMBIT/G is an experimental language for software programming. It is oriented toward the manipulation of complicated data structures. Two-dimensional directed-graph diagrams are used to represent the data, and similar diagrams are used throughout the program as the 'patterns' of rules to modify the data. The report begins with fundamental concepts and then proceeds to describe the implementation in great detail. The AMBIT/G programs for the AMBIT/G interpreter and the AMBIT/G loader are described and then displayed in full. Instructions for the input, execution, and debugging of a user program are given.
