About the ALGOL like programming language the scripting language formerly named Small Pawn scripting language SMALL , Small Machine Algol Like Language, is a computer programming programming programming language language developed by Dr. Nevil Brownlee of Auckland University . History The aim of the language was to enable people to write ALGOL like code that ran on a small machine. It also included the string type for easier text manipulation. SMALL was used extensively from about 1980 to 1985 at Auckland University as a programming teaching aid, and for some internal projects. Originally written to run on a Burroughs Corporation B6700 Main frame in Fortran IV, subsequently rewritten in SMALL and ported to a DEC PDP 10 Architecture on the Operating System TOPS 10 and IBM S360 Architecture on the Operating System VM Conversational Monitor System CMS . About 1985, SMALL had some Object oriented programming object oriented features added to handle structures that were missing from the early language , and to formalise file manipulation operations.
