Pascal (520/pas003) |  |
Wirth's development of the Algol-W proposal
alternate simple viewCountry: 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.
