It was also the language taught for several years in the 1980s at a local school in St. Andrews, Madras College.

S-algol is a computer programming language derivative of ALGOL 60 developed at the University of St. Andrews in 1979 by Ron Morrison and Tony Davie.
A 1979 study of the Algol-like light curve produced by this asteroid concluded that it was possible to model the brightness variation by assuming a binary system with a circular orbit, a period of 13.146 hours, and an inclination of 15° to the line of sight from the Earth.
It is named for John Goodricke, and 18th century British astronomer noted for identifying and explaining the variability of the star Algol.
In Hebrew folklore, Algol was called Rōsh ha Sāṭān or "Satan's Head", as stated by Edmund Chilmead, who called it "Divels head" or Rosch hassatan.
ALGOL 68-R was the first implementation of the Algorithmic language ALGOL 68.
ALGOL 68RS is the second ALGOL 68 compiler written by I.F. Currie and J.D. Morrison at the Royal Signals and Radar Establishment.
In the case of Algol and other binary stars we can observe something completely different: The less massive star is already a subgiant, and the star with much greater mass is still on the main-sequence.
It was developed by Tony Brooker and Derrick Morris as a variant of the ALGOL programming language, removing some Algol features such as "passing parameters by name" (which in Algol 60 means passing the address of a short subroutine to recalculate the parameter each time it was mentioned).
This last was the basis of the similar feature in the ALGOL compilers offered via the Burroughs B6700 systems, using the tilda symbol to stand for the variable being assigned to, so that
He was responsible for the research implementation of Algol 68 for the experimental MU5 computer at Manchester University, and still maintains an implementation of a subset called Algol 68S.

In order to create this art, Nees also wrote some of the world's first graphics libraries, packages named G1, G2, and G3 that extended the ALGOL programming language by adding commands for controlling a plotter and generating random numbers.
GOST 10859: A 1964 character set for computers, includes non-ASCII/non-Unicode characters required when programming in the ALGOL programming language.
In tight collaboration with Peter Naur and others, he developed reliable, well documented compilers to the ALGOL 60 programming language.
Le Chant des Astronautes The Astronauts' Song (1958) dealt with the battle against energy creatures from Algol.
PL/I's default storage class for INTERNAL variables is AUTOMATIC, similar to that of other block-structured languages influenced by ALGOL, like the "auto" storage class in the C language, and default storage allocation in Pascal and "local-storage" in IBM COBOL.
Instead of confronting him, Luios unleashes his trump card, Algol the Gorgon, a former Demon Lord under his control.
PS-algol was conceived by chance, when Ron Morrison was on sabbatical at Edinburgh University and met Malcolm Atkinson.
RTL/2, a real-time programming language based on Algol 68
He also made the mistake of asserting that one project — writing an ALGOL compiler — would require six months, regardless of the number of workers involved (it required longer).
