SAKO (PL: System Automatycznego KOdowania[1] - EN: An Automatic Coding System[2]) is a Polish language-based programming language written for the computers XYZ, ZAM-2, ZAM-21, ZAM-41 and Mińsk-22.[3]

General features of the SAKO language:

  • commands similar to sentences used in natural language
  • shortened the time of learning the principles of programming
  • easy to use, reduced coding time
  • transparent program code, low probability of making a mistake

It had a static address allocation. It was possible to insert code in SAS macro assembler. The compilation proceeded in two stages:

  1. From SAKO to simplified SAS macro assembler (SAS-W).
  2. From SAS-W to machine language.

The most characteristic feature of SAKO are Polish commands, e.g. CZYTAJ, SKOCZ DO. Designed primarily for programming numerical calculations.
