FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 4/6/87
CONTACT Dennis Baer
516 694 5872
Software author Dennis Baer has released the Structured
Programming Language, (SPL) a free format block structured
programming language that runs on MSDOS and PCDOS operating
systems. SPL is an alternative to PASCAL and C.
The SPL language is implemented by a translator which
converts SPL source code to a Microsoft BASIC program which can
then be compiled with Microsoft's Quick Basic, MS BASIC, IBM's
BASICA, or ported to machines such as AMIGA, MACINTOSH, ATARI ST,
or CP/M and compiled with the BASIC compiler for those machines.
SPL has been released as SHARE WARE and is available as file
SPLLIB.ARC on BIX in the IBM SIG or available on various bbs
systems:
212 980 0770
516 334 8221
302 655 6342
516 367 9626
If you have any questions you may call me at 516-694-5872 from
Monday thru Friday from 10:00 am to 6:30 pm New York time.
Some major features and advantages of SPL
o SPL is an alternative to the PASCAL and C languages
o SPL programs can be run on MACINTOSH,AMIGA,ATARI ST,CP/M
o The SPL processor will run on MSDOS emulators on MACINTOSH,
AMIGA,ATARI ST
o PROCEDURES
o WHILE loops
o FOR loops with REAL and INTEGER indicies and increments
o REPEAT loops
o Powerful IF THEN ELSE constructs
o Powerful RANDOM and SEQUENTIAL INPUT/OUTPUT including
formatted OUTPUT
o GRAPHICS statements PSET DRAW LINE CIRCLE PRESET SCREEN .....
o BEGIN END blocks
1
o ERROR trapping
o Statement labels (multiple labels supported)
o Strong data types INTEGER REAL STRING scalars and arrays
o Names of variables and labels up to 40 characters upper and
lower case
o Supports mathematical functions SIN COS TAN LOG EXP .....
o STRING functions MID$ LEFT$ RIGHT$ STR$ VAL$ ASC$ .....
o Your compiled BASIC programs do not become obsolete link
them together
o SPL programs run faster than PASCAL programs
o SPL programs can take advantage of an entire 640k IBM PC
o The SPL processor will work on an IBM PCjr with 128k and
1 drive
