'''Euler''' is a [[programming language]] created by [[Niklaus Wirth]] and Helmut Weber, conceived as an extension and generalization of [[ALGOL 60]].<ref>

* Simpler, yet more flexible, than ALGOL 60
* Useful and processed with reasonable efficiency
* Definable with [[Formal methods|rigorous formality]]

Available sources indicate that Euler was operational by 1965.
