The Advanced Continuous Simulation Language, or ACSL (pronounced "axle"), is a computer language designed for modelling and evaluating the performance of continuous systems described by time-dependent, nonlinear differential equations. It is a dialect of the Continuous System Simulation Language (CSSL), originally designed by the Simulations Council Inc (SCI) in 1967 in an attempt to unify the continuous simulations field.

Nay, her foot speaks; her wanton spirits look out
At every joint and motive of her body.”
