The Toy Language Syndrome
Abstract
Theorists and implementers can easily interact in such a way that software performs improperly, even if there are no mathematical mistakes in the theory and no coding bugs in the implementation. This correspondence explains the problem and some ways to cope with it. Examples are drawn from program proving, language design, and code optimization.
