Compilers for student jobs
Saul Rosen · 1964
Many University Computer Centers devote a good deal of computer time and a great deal of effort to processing -and-ldquo;student jobs.-and-rdquo; These are programs written by relative beginners in the computer field. Large numbers of students may be attempting to compile and run the same fairly simple programs. Many of the runs never get into execution as a result of source-language errors. There is rarely anything that can be characterized as a production run. The completion of the debugging phase marks the successful completion of the problem.
