Description

Computer Language was a monthly technical magazine published from June 1984 through June 1993 with a focus on the changing issues and trends in computer programming. It was a competitor to Dr. Dobb's Journal. By 1993 the two publications had evolved into complimentary products. The publisher of Computer Language decided to cease publication, launching a successor publication entitled Software Development. The Computer Lanugage holdings include the premiere issue (June 1984 - there was a 3 month response period until the second issue in October 1984) and the final issue (June 1993); there are missing issues.
