Summary
The statistical program Prism is introduced as a development of 6LIM-3. The features of GLIM-3 that made it simple and convenient for analysing generalised linear models have been consolidated in the new program. Some new language features of Prism are outlined and the data structures now supported by the System are described. Finally a brief description of the data manipulation and program control facilities of Prism is given.
