babbage |
1 definition found From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (13 Mar 01) [foldoc]: 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.
