I saw your comment when you created the task. I found the description and example to be enough to allow me to code the Python example, thanks. <br>
Strictly speaking, what's down for degree() isn't really pseudocode, but a textual description; but together with your worked example with its diagrams I was able to do the task. Thanks again, --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 19:07, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi ShinTakezou,
 
I spotted that you are giving [[ALGOL 68]] a spin[http://stackoverflow.com/users/354803/shintakezou]...
There are various tasks identified in: [[Reports:Tasks_not_implemented_in_ALGOL_68]], but to be honest I have "cherry picked" and done all the easy tasks, and so only the tougher ones are left to do. [OOPS sorry :-/ ]
 
FYI: There are two online manual pages:
* [https://sourceforge.net/projects/algol68/files/algol68g/algol68g-1.18.0/a68g-doc.pdf/download Algol 68G Manual - By Marcel van der Veer]
* [https://sourceforge.net/projects/algol68/files/algol68toc/algol68toc-1.8.8d/pame.pdf/download Programming Algol 68 Made Easy - Sian Leitch]
 
Or - if you prefer a hardcopy - you can try and pick up a hard cover manual like "''Informal Introduction to Algol 68''" - by C. H. Lindsey & S. V. Vander Meulen. Be sure to get the 1977 edition:
* [http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0720405041/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used www.amazon.com] - Aboout $119
* [http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Informal-Introduction-to-ALGOL-68/C-H-Lindsey/e/9780720407266/?itm=3&USRI=Informal+Introduction+to+Algol+68 barnesandnoble.com] - about $40
IItA68 is a beautiful book, and makes 'bedtime" great reading. I can highly recommend it!
 
Let me know if you have any questions.... Or join the Algol68-user mailing list at:
* https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/algol68-user
 
BTW: I you are still fond of Japanese culture and language, then you could do me a favour and try and get a copy of the Algol N implementation. I have no idea where to start, and cannot speak any Japanese. I speculate it had been "localised" to allow programming in Japanese!
* "The Japanese were also active in language design, and produced their own "ALGOL N" [AB30.3.2], a simplified form of ALGOL 68 with a simplified method of description." [Lindsey 1988], by S. Igarashi, T. Iwamura, K. Sakuma, T. Simauti, T. Simuzu, S. Takasu, E. Wada, and No. Yoneda. ALGOL-N. ALGOL Bulletin, Number 30 (February 1969), pages 38-85. ACM Digital Library
 
Good luck
