  POP-2
       
          Robin POPplestone, Edinburgh, 1967.  An innovative language
          incorporating many of Landin's ideas, including streams,
          closures, and functions as first-class citizens.  ALGOL-like
          syntax.  The first implementation was named Multi-POP, based


          on a REVPOL function written in POP-1, producing the
          reverse-polish form as output.  "POP-2 Papers", R.M.  Burstall
