Abstract | FORTRAN is readily feasible to translation into ALGOL since they share many common features. Most of the features that are unique to FORTRAN can be translated by restricting them somewhat. The translator will handle explicit declarations of each item in a block, compensate for the differences in various operators, compensate for the different storage techniques and provide a simple input /output scheme. Running test cases through the FORTRAN programs and through the translated ALGOL programs indicated that the ALGOL programs take longer to execute than their FORTRAN counterparts. |
