- agumonkey 11y agoAmazingly he designed a ml/c/prolog hybrid, adequately named MCPL: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mr10/MCPL.html http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mr10/MCPL.html
- cpeterso 11y agoI'm surprised no one has created a BCPL front end for LLVM. The grammar is probably pretty straightforward to implement.
- kjs3 11y agoI always thought BCPL would be a pretty decent language for the 8-bit generation (Z-80, 6502, 6800). I know something like that existed at the time, it didn't get as popular as maybe it could have.
