Abstract
Method for creating programs and processing data by having data in the form of data cards readily moved in and out of, and exchanged between, a command module, automatic editing display generator, printer generator and database. Programs may be written by simply selecting necessary commands in a small number of characters. The commands may be selected illustratively through kana-kanji conversion input. There is no need to type long sentences in alphabetic characters or in symbols. On arrival at the database, the data card containing actual data is controlled solely by the data characteristics of the database for file storage and editing, free of the constraints of any other module. A group of files on a magnetic disk where data layouts are defined may be readily accessed by anyone with little knowledge of computer systems by use of an appropriate series of database commands. Furthermore, the data cards containing actual data may be processed individually and parallelly by each of the modules. The inventive method allows anyone with little knowledge of computer systems easily to create and execute one program after another as needed. Because the commands function in the order they a…
