Description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. FORMAC, acronym
of FORmula MAnipulation Compiler, is an extension of FORTRAN. It was
developed by Jean E. Sammet. The additional capabilities of FORMAC
permit direct computation, manipulation, and use of functions of
advanced mathematics which can only be done indirectly and approximately
in FORTRAN. Fortran encompasses a lineage of versions, each of which
evolved to add extensions to the language while usually retaining
compatibility with previous versions. Successive versions have added
support for processing of character-based data (FORTRAN 77), array
programming, modular programming and object-based programming (Fortran
90 / 95), and object-oriented and generic programming (Fortran 2003).
