The Fortran Automatic Coding System for the IBM 704 (15 October 1956), the first Programmer's Reference Manual for Fortran

In computing, a programming language reference (or language reference manual) is part of the documentation associated with most mainstream programming languages. It describes the basic elements of the language and how to use them in computer programs, and is written for users and developers.

It is usually separate and distinct from a more detailed programming language specification meant for implementors of the language rather than those who simply use it to accomplish some processing task.
