SMALL, Small Machine Algol Like Language, is a programming language developed by Dr. Nevil Brownlee of Auckland University.
The aim of the language was to enable people to write ALGOL-like code that ran on a small machine. It also included the string type for easier text manipulation.
SMALL was used extensively from about 1980 to 1985 at Auckland University as a programming teaching aid, and for some internal projects. Originally written to run on a Burroughs Corporation B6700 Main frame in Fortran IV, subsequently rewritten in SMALL and ported to a DEC PDP-10 Architecture (on the Operating System TOPS-10) and IBM S360 Architecture (on the Operating System VM/CMS).
About 1985, SMALL had some object-oriented features added to handle structures (that were missing from the early language), and to formalise file manipulation operations.
A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants (plants of the division Magnoliophyta, also called angiosperms). The biological function of a flower is to effect reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of sperm with eggs. Flowers may facilitate outcrossing (fusion of sperm and eggs from different individuals in a population) or allow selfing (fusion of sperm and egg from the same flower). Some flowers produce diaspores without fertilization (parthenocarpy). Flowers contain sporangia and are the site where gametophytes develop. Flowers give rise to fruit and seeds. Many flowers have evolved to be attractive to animals, so as to cause them to be vectors for the transfer of pollen.
In addition to facilitating the reproduction of flowering plants, flowers have long been admired and used by humans to beautify their environment, and also as objects of romance, ritual, religion, medicine and as a source of food.
"Flower" is a song recorded by Australian singer Cody Simpson for his upcoming third full-length studio album, Free (2015). The song was released digitally in February 5, 2015 by Simpson's independent label Bananabeat Records.
When he left Atlantic Records, Simpson said: "It's the first time I've had the creative freedom to do what I want." American singer Miley Cyrus contributed for the song's artwork and said: "He's a super fucking cool guy and an epic guitar player and singer."
A music video for the song was released on Simpson's official YouTube account in February 10, 2015. The video was directed by Cameron Duddy and features Gigi Hadid.
Flower is the eighth solo album by drummer Akira Jimbo and was released on January 28, 1997. It features several guest musicians, such as longtime collaborators Gary Stockdale and Keiko Matsui.
