{{wikipedia}}{{implementation|ALGOL 68}}{{stub}}ALGOL 68R from [http[wp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Radar_Establishment |RRE]] was the first [[ALGOL 68]] subset implementation,
running on the [http[wp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICL_1900 |ICL 1900]].
Based on the original language, the main subset restrictions were ''definition before use'' and no parallel processing.
This compiler was popular in [http[wp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom |UK]] universities in the 1970s, where many [http[wp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/computer_science |computer science]] students learnt [[ALGOL 68]] as their first programming language; the compiler was renowned for good error messages.
