Antiquity Spoffware Solutions is proud to announce its latest
fully integrated software package for C programmers. C Programmers
for years now have been frustrated with a myriad of functions
designed for almost sickening efficiency and control. Any
programmer knows that a language so flexible has its drawbacks:
Universality.
C-- combines all the power of BASIC, the readability of COBOL,
and the wealth of string and graphics functions associated with
FORTRAN.
C-- does away with floats and doubles, chars and ints and
manipulates data entirely in LONG integer form (for portability.)
Here are some examples:
/* This program generates an integer-oriented
#include <cmm.h>
#LOADREGULARCLIBRARYFUNCTION (STDIO.H)
MAIN *OPENCURLYBRACKETPOINTINGLEFT
PRINTFORMATTEDOUTPUT ( "DEMONSTRATION OF C-- FUNCTIONS" )
SEMICOL
LET THENUMBER A EQUAL 10 SEMICOLON
LET THENUMBER B EQUAL 20 SEMICOLON
IF A .LT. B THEN DO SINGLEFUNCTION
PRINTFORMATTEDOUTPUT( NUMBER, STRING, A, "IS SMALLEST" )
SEMICOLON
OTHERWISE
IF B .LT. B THEN DO SINGLEFUNCTION
PRINTFORMATTEDOUTPUT( NUMBER, STRING, B "IS SMALLEST" )
SEMICOLON
OTHERWISE
DO NOTHING SEMICOLON
*CLOSECURLYBRACKETPOINTINGRIGHT
The above source, as you may have noticed, is not just a
demonstration of the ASS software team's life-long persistance in
the generation of efficient, compact, (and most of all) READABLE
software.
The tried and true principles behind line-buffered input are
sure to delight the seasoned programmer. C-- is sure to invoke
images of keypunches and card readers and leave you happily
chugging away at keyboard.
