I/O Operations in BLISS

Input and output are where BLISS shows its systems-programming heritage most clearly: the language has no I/O statements at all. There is no print, no read, no file-handling syntax built into the …

I/O Operations in C

Input and output are where a program meets the outside world. In C, all I/O lives in the standard library rather than the language itself - the <stdio.h> header (standard input/output) provides …

I/O Operations in Carbon

Input and output are where an experimental language shows its true age, and Carbon is refreshingly honest about it. As a multi-paradigm systems language (imperative, object-oriented, and generic) with …

I/O Operations in ALGOL 60

Introduction

Here is the surprising truth about input and output in ALGOL 60: the language never defined any. The 1960 Report deliberately left I/O out so the committee could concentrate on …

I/O Operations in ALGOL 68

Introduction

Where ALGOL 60 deliberately left input and output undefined, ALGOL 68 went the opposite way and built a complete, carefully specified transput model directly into the language (the ALGOL …

I/O Operations in APL

Input and output are where an otherwise pure, array-oriented language has to talk to the outside world. In the earlier tutorials a bare expression printed its result automatically — that is the only …

I/O Operations in Assembly

In a high-level language, input and output hide behind friendly functions: print, input, open, read. In assembly there is no standard library and no printf — every byte that leaves or enters your …

I/O Operations in ABAP

Input and output in ABAP look very different from the print/read/fopen trio you find in most languages, because ABAP was never a console or shell language - it is a server-side, business-application …

I/O Operations in Ada

Input and output are where a program meets the outside world, and Ada treats that boundary with the same seriousness it applies to everything else. Rather than a single grab-bag library, Ada ships a …
