Icon syntax, produced by Griswold in the 1970's. Icon is a general-purpose language with special features for string scanning. It has dynamic types: records, sets, lists, strings, tables. If has some {object oriented} features but no {modules} or {exception}s. It has a primitive {Unix} interface. The central theme of Icon is the generator: when an expression is evaluated it may be suspended and later resumed, producing a result sequence of values until it fails. Resumption takes place implicitly in two contexts: iteration which is syntactically loop-like ('every-do'), and goal-directed evaluation in which a conditional expression automatically attempts to produce at least one result. Expressions that fail are used in lieu of Booleans. Data {backtracking} is supported by a reversible {assignment}. Icon also has {co-expression}s, which can be explicitly resumed at any time. Version 8.8 by Ralph Griswold an {interpreter}, a compiler (for some {platform}s) and a library (v8.8). Icon has been ported to {Amiga}, {Atari}, {CMS}, {Macintosh}, {Macintosh/MPW}, {MS-DOS}, {MVS}, {OS/2}, {Unix}, {VMS}, {Acorn}.

icon file, directory, or action) in a {graphical user interface}. When an icon is clicked on, some action is performed such as opening a directory or aborting a file transfer. Icons are usually stored as {bitmap} images. {Microsoft Windows} uses a special bitmap format with file name extension ".ico" as well as embedding icons in executable (".exe") and {Dynamically Linked Library} (DLL) files. The term originates from {Alan Kay}'s theory for designing interfaces which was primarily based on the work of Jerome Bruner. Bruner's second developmental stage, iconic, uses a system of representation that depends on visual or other sensory organization and upon the use of summarising images. {IEEE publication (http://www.ieee.org/organizations/history_center/cht_papers/Barnes.pdf)}.

ISAM {Indexed Sequential Access Method} | |
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]: | |
ISWIM If You See What I Mean. Landin 1966. ISWIM is {purely functional}, a sugaring of {lambda-calculus}, and the ancestor of most modern {applicative} languages. An ISWIM program is a single expression qualified by 'where' clauses (auxiliary definitions including equations among variables), conditional expressions and function definitions. ISWIM was the first language to use {lazy evaluation} and introduced the {offside rule} for indentation. ["The Next 700 Programming Languages", P.J. Landin, CACM 9(3):157-166 (Mar 1966)]. | |
