n. [after the IBM System/360 Reference Data card] A summary of an assembly
|
|
|
|
|
language, even if the color is not green and not a card. Less frequently
|
|
|
|
|
used now because of the decrease in the use of assembly language. I'll go
|
|
|
|
|
get my green card so I can check the addressing mode for that instruction.

The original green card became a yellow card when the System/370 was

introduced, and later a yellow booklet. In fall 2000 it was reported from
|
|
|
|
|
Electronic Data Systems that the green card for 370 machines has been a
|
|
