Abstract

It is an accident that digital computers are organized like desk calculators--with somewhat worse luck we might have taken the Turing machine as our model. And someone would have been unenlightened enough to prove that, under certain (actually untrue) assumptions, it made no difference. All general purpose machines can compute the same functions, given sufficient time.

AFIPS '70 (Fall): Proceedings of the November 17-19, 1970, fall joint computer conference

Learning to program in a general-purpose, high-level language is a formidable task for a person who simply wishes to use the computer to solve his problems. He must learn how to express his problems in algorithmic form in the language, the constraints ...
