There is now a good understanding of problems encountered in the design, implementation and use of a high‐level language converter. These general issues are illustrated in terms of an account of the design and implementation of one particular converter, which converts programs from Pascal‐SC (a Pascal dialect) to Ada. A specific aim of the presentation is to provide guidance for those contemplating future language conversion projects.
