BCPL is a very simple typeless language in which all values are of the same size, typically a 32-bit word. It has a compiler freely available via [[http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/mr10]]. This web page also contains several link to other items including Cintpos an interpretive implementation of the Tripos Portable Operating System and a manual covering both BCPL and Cintpos. BCPL and Cintpos are still undergoing slow development. ==See Also== * [[wp:BCPL\|BCPL on Wikipedia]] * [[B]]
