The first programming languages and coding systems, designed in the 1940s and 1950s before the ideas of modern compilers were settled. Plankalkul was designed by Konrad Zuse in the 1940s, the A-0 system of Grace Hopper served as a loader and linker, FLOW-MATIC was the first English-like data processing language, and Short Code, Autocode, the Address language and the Information Processing Language belong to the same pioneering period.

The A-0 system (Arithmetic Language version 0) was an early compiler-related tool developed for electronic computers, written by Grace Murray Hopper in 1951 and 1952 originally for the UNIVAC I. The A-0 functioned more as a loader or linker than the modern notion of a compiler.
