Wirth, N., "PL360, a programming language for the 360 computer", Journal of the Association for Computing Machinery, 15, 1, January 1968, pp. 37-74. Google
abstract ;;Quote: PL360 is a simple, readable, recursive, symbolic machine language for IBM 360 computers; improves program structure and style
39 ;;Quote: the IBM 360 has a systematic architecture; condition code, registers, memory, 8-bit bytes, 32-bit integers, 32 and 64-bit reals, two's complement
40 ;;Quote: IBM 360 cells contain a value; arrays contain an ordered set of cells; operations are a mapping from operands to results
56 ;;Quote: except for sequencing, the PL360 language maps directly to the IBM 360; operations, storage, segments; sequencing through control structures
65 ;;Quote: handle syntactic errors with a table of erroneous productions; appropriate error message and recovery
66 ;;Quote: PL360 bootstrapped on a B5500 by reprogramming the compiler in its own language; useful for refining the language
