Want to request Houston-area pictures for Wikipedia? Leave a request at my talk page - I do not guarantee that I will take the picture.
I removed it because stating Alcorn State is not well known outside Mississippi is not a fact of any sort and it simply isn't relevant to the wiki page. The article you used to support that statement is over 20 years old and was not a credible source.

p. 128 "This paper describes two programs — called cacher and assigner — that implement CSE and register allocation on object code for an optimizing Y compiler [Hanson]."
p. 131 "the 3500-line Y compiler is compiled using only 42 register spills[...]" and "These rules involve fewer than ten ines of machine-dependent code, although languages with more opportunities for aliasing [Aho] than Y (e.g., pointers) might require a few more." and "Dave Hanson provided useful advice and parts of the Y compiler"

Available at ACM DL Digital Library. 10.1145/1780.1783.
p. 506 "The compiler, called "YC", translates the Y programming language [18], though its techniques apply to other Algol-like languages as well."
Article discusses in detail the compiler YC
p. 517 has Table I, a table of YC processing Y, C, and Pascal in 8q, ctoi, and ictoi, giving seconds and bytes
"Also: "This includes writing a machine description, coding a naive code generator, making the simple changes to Cacher and Assigner, and assembling a skeletal runtime for Y."
p. 518 has Table II, a table of Y (retargetable), Y (host-specific), and Ratfor in 8q, ctoi, and ictoi, giving seconds and bytes; it also has Table II, a table of Y, Pascal, and Ratfor in 8q, ctoi, and ictoi, giving seconds and bytes - p. 518 talks about Y compilers.
p. 520 "Y has no pointers, structures, or multidimensioned arrays, but YC's abstract machine does not assume any such restrictions. Indeed, it cannot, for Y's call-by-call reference requires abstract machine pointers, and Y's procedure frames are essentially structures. The only significant additions likely to be required by other Algol-ike languages should be a few extended-precision types and operators for them."

For your excellent work on multiple ethnicity-related articles! It's wonderful! Articles like that (e.g. Japanese community of São Paulo, Maghrebian community of Paris) are very interesting! And, maybe they can be good ways to show people diversity. I hope they can make people become less intolerant. :) Haha maybe I'm a dreamer... Anyway, it's delightful to see your work on it. My best regards. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 20:00, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
