ISWIM

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.
