Reading and writing of data is fundamental in computing, as is its control. However control of reading and writing has traditionally only been available at the level of le systems, and not programming language data structures. In this paper a simple imperative language is described which uses type modes to control reading and writing of data. A type may be labelled read-write or read-only; a re...

Vocabulary is fundamental to reading. As elementary students cross over from learning to read into reading to learn, vocabulary knowledge becomes increasingly important. The massive amount of vocabulary a student must learn precludes large amounts of time spent on any single word (Carver 1994, Schwanenflugel et al. 1997), except perhaps for some words that the student will read and write many t...

Teaching a student to write computer programs well is much like teaching a student to write English prose well. That is, although a program must be correct in every last detail, achieving correctness is only half of the task. The other half consists of quality factors such as clarity, organization, conciseness, maintainability, etc. Although these factors cannot be automatically measured, they ...

Reading and writing is modelled in CSP using actions containing the symbols ? and !. These reading and writing actions are synchronous and there is a oneto-one relationship between occurrences of pairs of these actions. It is cumbersome to ease the restriction of synchronous execution of the read and write actions. For this reason we introduce the half-asynchronous parallel operator that acts o...
