Abstract

There has been a lot of discussion lately about the drawbacks of various language structures [2] and the lack of the same structures in older programming languages (Fortran) [1]. In this brief paper I propose a modest alteration to programming languages and present a simple pre-processor written in Fortran that implements the alteration.
