TL;DR
This paper discusses the implementation of the REC language interpreter on an IBM 1130 simulator, highlighting its educational use and simplicity for students learning programming in Mexican universities during the late 1960s.
Contribution
It presents the development and use of a REC language interpreter in FORTRAN on an IBM 1130 simulator, demonstrating its application in educational settings.
Findings
REC language is suitable for teaching programming concepts.
The interpreter was successfully implemented on the IBM 1130 simulator.
REC's simplicity aids students in learning programming without complex syntax.
Abstract
REC (Regular Expression Compiler) is a concise programming language development in mayor Mexican Universities at end of 60s which allows students to write programs without knowledge of the complicated syntax of languages like FORTRAN and ALGOL. The language is recursive and contains only four elements for control. This paper describes use of the interpreter of REC written in FORTRAN on IBM1130 Simulator from -Computer History Simulation- Project.
