For big programs this could mean disastrously long re-compilations. On the negative side, the problem with separate compilation in the form provided by FORTRAN is the fact that once object code is produced,it becomes impossible for the code to check if it is being accessed by a 42 The Challenge of Programming Language Design legitimate caller. For example, a FORTRAN procedure with two parameters of type integer and real would have no way to check that a call is supplying type correct values, or that it is even supplying the correct number of values.

5. Advances in the '70s The 1970s have seen no abatement in the development of programming languages. But whereas the '50s and '60s witnessed a wide diversity in programming languages, spanning ALGOL60, LISP, APL and SNOBOL, the '70s have seemed to concentrate on improvements to the basic imperative programming language style. Of course, there are exceptions to this statement. Scanning some of the names of the languages of the 70s, we see ELl, CLU, ConcurrentPascal, MESA, Euclid, MODULA, SMALLTALK, and most recently.
