History

Algorithmic Language 1968 (ALGOL 68) was an imperative computer programming language developed by computer scientists from around the world. The programming language was highly influential, used by many European defence agencies, and parts of it have been seen in computer languages developed years later. At UBC, John E.L. Peck (known in the ALGOL 68 working group as JELP) took a significant role in creating the language and leading the group as they developed and edited the programming language from the late 1960s to the mid-1970s.
