  • D. Algol 68S
    Algol 68S is a simplified subset of the Algol 68 programming language designed to make the language easier to implement and use.
  • E. Algol 68
    Algol 68 is a high-level, structured programming language from the ALGOL family, notable for its orthogonal design and influence on many later languages.
  • F. None of above. chosen
