Abstract

BPL is an interactive language which is derived from the languages BASIC and Pascal. It was designed as a two-tier language to cater for beginners as well as advanced programmers. The lower level is very similar to BASIC with a few slight modifications particularly to the procedure/function declarations and control statements. The higher level incorporates most of the flexible data structures available in Pascal. The resulting language provides the advantages of both BASIC and Pascal.
