In the directory /pub/simbook at the ftp site ifi.uio.no
there are many examples from Kirkerud book about Simula.

The file /pub/simbook/README is added below.

Three classes not mentioned in the book "Object-Oriented Programming with
Simula",
but which may be of interest:


  texttools.sim:   A class that contains tools (procedures)
                   for handling texts

  promptools.sim:  A class that contains tools that may be used to read
                   simple values (numbers, characters, texts, truth values)
                   after prompting the user

  filetools.sim:   A class that contains tools for writing and reading
                   simple values on file.


These classes are used in the following programs

  studchain2.sim: Revised version of the program constructed in
                  chapter 14, example 14.1

  studset2.sim:   Revised version of the program constructed in
