   From: robin51@dodo.com.au   
      
   A. B. Tucker produced a book "Programming Languages" (McGraw-Hill, 1977)   
   covering in detail ALGOL, FORTRAN, COBOL, PL/I, RPG, and SNOBOL.   
      
   Example programs with timings are given for each language.   
      
   Timings for PL/I under the IBM compilers need to be taken wih a grain of salt,   
   for Tucker omitted to specify OPTIONS (REORDER) in all the procedures --   
   largely negating the effects of specifying optimisation.
