This article presents information related to the revised algorithm policy of 1961. A contribution to the algorithms department must be in the form of an algorithm, a certification, or a remark. Contributions should be sent in duplicate to the editor, type written double-spaced in capital and lower-case letters. An algorithm must be written in the ALGOL 60 Reference Language, and normally consists of a commented procedure declaration. Each algorithm must be accompanied by a complete driver program in ALGOL 60 which generates test data, calls the procedure, and outputs test answers. Moreover, selected previously obtained test answers should be given in comments in either the driver program or the algorithm. The driver program may be published with the algorithm if it would be of major assistance to a user.
