Algol 58, short for Algorithmic Language 1958, is a high-level programming language designed for scientific computations and algorithmic description. It introduced concepts like block structure and lexical scoping, influencing many subsequent languages.

About Algol 58
Algol 58 was created in 1958 by a committee of European and American computer scientists. It aimed to provide a universal language for algorithmic representation and to facilitate the exchange of algorithms between researchers. It laid the groundwork for future programming languages by introducing structured programming concepts.
Strengths of Algol 58 included its structured programming concepts and clear syntax for algorithmic description. Weaknesses involved limited input/output capabilities and lack of widespread adoption. Competitors included Fortran, which was more widely used in scientific computing, and COBOL, which was popular in business applications.
