A more in-depth discussion of if and do is required, as well as nondeterminism. Also, an example of how to use predicate transformers to derive a non-trivial algorithm might be good, as long as it doesn't conflict with policy. Also, the references section could use some filling out, specifically to the Gries' and Backhous' newer books on the subject. The relationship to predicate calculus could also be filled out. --jayinbmore 23:58, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Also needs accounting of the wlp "weakest liberal precondition" predicate transformer. --jayinbmore 07:53, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
