Programming Language - ISWIM

ISWIM

ISWIM - If You See What I Mean. Landin 1966. ISWIM is purely functional,
a sugaring of lambda calculus, and the ancestor of most modern applicative
languages. An ISWIM program is a single expression qualified by where
clauses (auxiliary definitions including equations among variables),
conditional expressions and function definitions. ISWIM was the first
language to use lazy evaluation, and introduced the offside rule for
indentation. "The Next 700 Programming Languages", P.J. Landin, CACM
9(3):157-166 (Mar 1966).
