Abstract

ECL is a programming language system designed to provide an environment conducive to effective programming. It consists of a programming language and a system built around that language to serve as a tool and vehicle for program manufacture. The language contains comprehensive data types, operators, control structures and storage management. The system is oriented to interactive program composition and debugging with smooth transition to efficient compiled code. Most important, the system allows the programmer to tailor the environment to suit his needs.
