Pascal (520/pas003)

 Cover of book

Wirth's development of the Algol-W proposal 

alternate simple view
Country: Switzerland
Designed 1970
Published: 1971
Genus: Pascals
Sammet category: Multi-purpose

Teaching language designed by Wirth in reaction to the ALOGL 68 report, in spirit allied with the ALGOL-W report

Named for Blaise Pascal

Featured enumeration types, subranges, sets, variant records, case statement.

Wirth (2001) states that the static pointers came from Hoare, the semantics from Algol-W, the record structures from COBOL.
