HIBOL

<language>

A variant of DIBOL, used in Infotec computers. HIBOL was considered to be a very high level language and significantly easier to maintain than COBOL. It uses a single type of data object, called a flow, which is an indexed stream of data values. Computation is expressed as operations acting on flows.
