A Comparison of Programming Languages for Software Engineering

Four programming languages (Fortran, Cobol, Jovial, and the proposed DOD standard -- variously called 'DOD-1, 'Strawman', 'Woodman', 'Tinman', and 'Ironman') are compared in the light of modern ideas of good software engineering practice. The comparison begins by identifying a core for each language that captures the essential properties of the intent of the language designers. These core languages then serve as a basis for the discussion of the language philosophies and the impact of the language on gross program organization and on the use of individual statements.
