CODIL, Part 1. The importance of flexibility*

C. F. Reynolds §

Tring, Hertfordshire, UK

Many non-numerical data processing systems prove to be insufficiently flexible. This paper discusses some examples of how inflexibility manifests itself and how application specific languages can help. It then describes a novel language, CODIL, specifically designed for use with complex non-numerical problems, with particular emphases on Management Information Systems.

Received January 1971.
