Re‐creation of source code from reverse polish form
- 1972
Computer Science
By adding redundant operators when compiling into reverse Polish notation, it is possible to re‐create source code in exactly its original form, useful for incremental compilers since it permits partial compilation without the need to maintain a copy of the original program.

A fairly good result was obtained using the superselective one shot method, even in patients with tumors having relatively few vessels, despite the fact that these patients had primary cancers of the liver and metastases to the liver from primary cancer of the stomach, or from the colorectal or other organs.
