Mesa (programming language)Mesa is a programming language developed in the late 1970s at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center in Palo Alto, California, United States. The language name was a pun based upon the programming language catchphrases of the time, because Mesa is a "high level" programming language. Mesa is an ALGOL-like language with strong support for modular programming. Every library module has at least two source files: a definitions file specifying the library's interface plus one or more program files specifying the implementation of the procedures in the interface.
Programmation orientée objetLa programmation orientée objet (POO), ou programmation par objet, est un paradigme de programmation informatique. Elle consiste en la définition et l'interaction de briques logicielles appelées objets ; un objet représente un concept, une idée ou toute entité du monde physique, comme une voiture, une personne ou encore une page d'un livre. Il possède une structure interne et un comportement, et il sait interagir avec ses pairs.
Oberon (operating system)The Oberon System is a modular, single-user, single-process, multitasking operating system written in the programming language Oberon. It was originally developed in the late 1980s at ETH Zurich. The Oberon System has an unconventional visual text user interface (TUI) instead of a conventional command-line interface (CLI) or graphical user interface (GUI). This TUI was very innovative in its time and influenced the design of the Acme text editor for the Plan 9 from Bell Labs operating system.
Oberon-2Oberon-2 is an extension of the original Oberon programming language that adds limited reflection and object-oriented programming facilities, open arrays as pointer base types, read-only field export, and reintroduces the FOR loop from Modula-2. It was developed in 1991 at ETH Zurich by Niklaus Wirth and Hanspeter Mössenböck, who is now at Institut für Systemsoftware (SSW) of the University of Linz, Austria. Oberon-2 is a superset of Oberon, is fully compatible with it, and was a redesign of Object Oberon.
One-pass compilerIn computer programming, a one-pass compiler is a compiler that passes through the parts of each compilation unit only once, immediately translating each part into its final machine code. This is in contrast to a multi-pass compiler which converts the program into one or more intermediate representations in steps between source code and machine code, and which reprocesses the entire compilation unit in each sequential pass. This refers to the logical functioning of the compiler, not to the actual reading of the source file once only.
ModulaThe Modula programming language is a descendant of the Pascal language. It was developed in Switzerland, at ETH Zurich, in the mid-1970s by Niklaus Wirth, the same person who designed Pascal. The main innovation of Modula over Pascal is a module system, used for grouping sets of related declarations into program units; hence the name Modula. The language is defined in a report by Wirth called Modula. A language for modular multiprogramming published 1976. Modula was first implemented by Wirth on a PDP-11.
Oberon (langage)Oberon (alias Oberon-1) est un langage de programmation développé par Niklaus Wirth et Jürg Gutknecht de 1985 à 1987. Quoique le langage soit basé sur Modula-2 — dont Wirth est l'auteur —, plusieurs propriétés ont été éliminées et l'extension de type, en outre, fut introduite. Sa syntaxe ressemble au Pascal. Oberon élimine également le mécanisme explicite de désallocation de mémoire et intègre un ramasse-miettes (Garbage collector).
Modula-3Modula-3 is a programming language conceived as a successor to an upgraded version of Modula-2 known as Modula-2+. While it has been influential in research circles (influencing the designs of languages such as Java, C#, Python and Nim) it has not been adopted widely in industry. It was designed by Luca Cardelli, James Donahue, Lucille Glassman, Mick Jordan (before at the Olivetti Software Technology Laboratory), Bill Kalsow and Greg Nelson at the Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) Systems Research Center (SRC) and the Olivetti Research Center (ORC) in the late 1980s.
Compiled languageA compiled language is a programming language whose implementations are typically compilers (translators that generate machine code from source code), and not interpreters (step-by-step executors of source code, where no pre-runtime translation takes place). The term is somewhat vague. In principle, any language can be implemented with a compiler or with an interpreter. A combination of both solutions is also common: a compiler can translate the source code into some intermediate form (often called p-code or bytecode), which is then passed to an interpreter which executes it.
Turbo PascalTurbo Pascal est un environnement de développement intégré pour le langage Pascal. Sa puissance et son prix « démocratique » ont fait son succès dans les années 1980 et 1990. Le compilateur était basé sur le compilateur Blue Label Pascal à l'origine écrit en 1981 par Anders Hejlsberg pour l'ordinateur Nascom avec le système d'exploitation à cassette NasSys. Il a été réécrit sous le nom de Compass Pascal pour le système d'exploitation CP/M, puis il a pris le nom de Poly Pascal (d'après la société Poly Data de Hejlsberg) avant d'être acheté par Borland et produit pour les systèmes DOS et CP/M.
