ECMA-2

This document consists of two parts. The first of these contains an account of the raison d’être and intention of the ECMA subset of ALGOL 60 followed by a table setting out the restrictions of the subset in three forms, two being informal remarks to compiler designers and programmers – respectively, and the third being the amendments necessary to the Revised ALGOL 60 Report to define the subset. The second part of the document is the text of the Revised ALGOL 60 Report with these ECMA amendments included in rectangular “boxes” next to the corresponding passages of the official text.
