Techniques for program error diagnosis on EDSAC 2

Abstract
The paper describes the techniques and facilities for program error diagnosis provided in the EDSAC 2 machine-code and Autocode programming systems. The Autocode diagnosis system can normally be used without any knowledge of machine code since some automatic interpretation of diagnostic information is carried out, and all communication with the programmer is in source language. The practical usefulness of the various techniques described is indicated.
