Commercial autocodes or source languages are contrasted with machine assembly codes. Ten factors that affect the overall efficiency of a data-processing system are listed and examined to discover how the use of a commercial autocode will affect them. This paper was presented to the B.C.S. Symposium on Practical Experience with Commercial Autocodes held in London on 25 March, 1964.
