Abstract

Very high level languages are being developed to serve as a tool in the production of reliable software. One of the features of such languages is the ability programmers have of defining new data types. In this paper we define one such type, the domain, which, when coupled with a generalized FOR statement, can be a valuable aid to programming in high levels of abstraction. An application of generalized FOR statements in relational sublanguages is presented.
