ISWIM is a programming language devised by
Peter J. Landin[?] and first described in his article,
The next 700 programming languages, published in the CACM in
1966. The acronym stands for "
If you
See
What
I Mean".
It has proved very influential in the development of functional programming languages such as SASL[?], Miranda, ML and their successors.
