Babbage
The structured {assembly language} for the {General Electric
Company} 4xxx range of computers and their {OS4000} {operating
system}. It is strictly an assembler in that the generated
code is relatively predictable but it can be written in a
sufficiently structured manner, with indentation, control
statements, function and procedure calls, to make the
resultant source easy to read and manage. Even with this
visible structure however, it is important to remember that
the assembly of the statement is done left to right.
The British {videotext} system, {Prestel} is programmed in
Babbage.
