AUTOCODER
     
         Possibly the first primitive {compiler}.  AUTOCODER
        was written by Alick E. Glennie in 1952.  It translated
        symbolic statements into {machine language} for the
        {Manchester Mark I} computer.
     
        Autocoding later came to be a generic term for {assembly
        language} programming.
