And to understand anything about Algol 68 (the programming language) you
must first understand everything about Algol 68.  Fortunately, this
recursion is broken: you don't have to understand everything *in depth* to
understand any one thing in depth.  Consequently, the tutorial "Algol 68
with fewer tears" gives you a shallow introduction to the whole language,
and having read that you can read any of the following sections on
particular topics.
