{{more footnotes|date=March 2013}}

ARITH-MATIC is an extension of Grace Hopper's A-2 programming language,{{cite book|last=Sammet|first=Jean|authorlink=Jean E. Sammet|date=1969|title=Programming Languages: History and Fundamentals|publisher=Prentice-Hall|isbn=978-0-13-729988-1|pages=132}} developed around 1955. ARITH-MATIC was originally known as A-3, but was renamed by the marketing department of Remington Rand UNIVAC.
