If we agree that the purpose of computing is to solve problems of one sort or another, then it seems clear that the purpose of programming is to communicate to computing systems (and usually to other people) the means of solving problems. The vehicle used for this communication is the programming language. In an 'ideal' situation, the problem-poser might devise a method for the solution of his problem, and then state his method in a programming language which would be rich enough to allow full expression and at the same time powerful enough to free him from concern about matters (such as storage allocation) which have no direct bearing on his problem. In practice, the richness and power of available programming languages will influence, to some degree, both the methodology employed and the amount of detail which must be included in the program.
