Specifies semantics and syntax and states what is necessary for a compiler and a program to comply.

This British Standard specifies the semantics and syntax of the computer programming language CORAL 66 by specifying requirements for a compiler and for a conforming program.

NOTE 1 Any feature that is not explicitly specified in this standard has been intentionally left unspecified. Appendix A lists some unspecified features.

Appendix B gives additional information regarding implementation.

NOTE 2 The examples given among the specification requirements are not intended to add to or detract from the requirements, but are included purely to aid understanding.
