File extension ALG is related to InRoads Survey alignment file.InRoads Survey offers a sleek graphical tool for reduction of data - from electronic field books and global positioning systems - for use in the InRoads civil design and engineering environment.
ALG files are text based algorithm files created in Mapping Software. Images that have been processed in the program are stored in the ALG format. ALG files may be viewed and edited with the appropriate programs.
File extension ALG is related to PDP-10 ALGOL compiler source.The PDP-10 was a mainframe computer manufactured by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) from the late 1960s on; the name stands for "Programmed Data Processor model 10". It was the machine that made time-sharing common; it looms large in hacker folklore because of its adoption in the 1970s by many university computing facilities and research labs, the most notable of which were MIT's AI Lab and Project MAC, Stanford's SAIL, Computer Center Corporation (CCC), and Carnegie Mellon University. The PDP-10 architecture was an almost identical version of the earlier PDP-6 architecture, sharing the same 36-bit word length and slightly extending the instruction set (but with improved hardware implementation). Some aspects of the instruction set are unique, most notably the "byte" instructions, which operated on arbitrary sized bit-fields (at that time a byte was not necessarily eight bits).
