The pseudo-code style from the existing ES3 spec. An example:
11.3.1 Postfix Increment Operator
The production PostfixExpression : LeftHandSideExpression [no
LineTerminator here] ++ is evaluated as follows:
1. Evaluate LeftHandSideExpression.
2. Call GetValue(Result(1)).
3. Call ToNumber(Result(2)).
4. Add the value 1 to Result(3), using the same rules as for the +
operator (see 11.6.3).
5. Call PutValue(Result(1), Result(4)).
6. Return Result(3).
