Implement a variant of the PL/C persistent diagnostic compiler originally developed at Cornell University to run on the IBM 360 computer. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PL/C

Self-correcting program compiler design can improve user experience today. Implementing these ideas in their original form can provide insight into reduced language subsets for efficient computation and programmer facilitation.

• Install Hercules emulator for IBM 360

• Load Turnkey MVT system image

• As a parallel effort, evaluate function of a C interpreter for PL/I

• Read more about PL/C design and user manual

• Implement and test a PL/C subset for simple programs

• Progressively expand to more complex PL/I lanugage subsets

• Increase compiler persistence and facilitation

• Consider a concrete benchmark such as counting with a hashmap to guide development
