If this is to make it more like the original case rather than what I could glean from wikipedia then please remove the banner and add a small explanation ; if it is not then please update the example. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 05:34, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
 
Yeah, even the ALGOL example was only there to introduce the algorithm to the audiences of the mid-'70s, before delving 25 years further back in time. The systems that are the subject of the report mostly predated notions of keyboard interaction or textual I/O. --[[User:Saccade|Saccade]] 05:59, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
