And here’s a 1964 Stanford TimeSharing Project Memo by McKeeman and Wirth on
Gogol:
Gogol is a simple, integer arithmetic language used under the PDP-1 time
sharing system at Stanford. This memorandum includes the syntactical definition
of the language and a number of sample programs as well as a brief description
of the operational characteristics of the compiler. Gogol was designed to
permit fast compilation of efficient machine code directly into memory. The
speed of compilation together with the accessibility of the text editor make
program de- bugging relatively rapid. The examples presented here plus the
availability of the compiler should form an adequate basis for learning to use
the language. More detailed information depends heavily on a knowledge of PDP-1
hardware.

Do we have CODE? PDP-1's seems to be showing up more often than a PDP 8
as retro project.
