The Algol Bulletin

Introduction

The ALGOL Bulletin was produced under the auspices of the Working Group on ALGOL of the International Federation for Information Processing (WG 2.1) from March 1959 to August 1988, in 52 issues.

For an alphabetical author index, see Appendix B.

The following statement appeared in the issues at the request of the Council of IFIP:

The opinions and statements expressed by the contributors to this Bulletin do not necessarily reflect those of IFIP, and IFIP undertakes no responsibility for any action which might arise from such statements. Except in the case of IFIP documents, which are clearly so designated, IFIP does not retain copyright authority on material published here. Permission to reproduce any contribution should be sought directly from the authors concerned. No reproduction may be made in part or in full of documents or working papers of the Working Group itself without permission in writing from IFIP.

For an index to the ALGOL Supplements, see Appendix A.

For an index to the meetings of WG2.1, see Appendix C.

For details of this reproduction (and some other Algol documents), see Appendix D.

Algol Bulletins No. 1-7

The first seven issues were not produced in the same style and format as the later ones. Hence there is a separate index.
