Whats new:
* Chess game. Contributed by a Pascal user who typed it in from an old
Byte Magazine, it compiles via ISO 7185 Pascal.
* A .PDF of the Pascal-S article by N. Wirth.
* A .PDF of the Algol 60 revised report. Algol 60 was the predecessor to
Pascal.
* A .PDF of an Algol-W manual. Algol-W was the language Wirth designed
to replace Algol 60, and that directly led to the creation of Pascal.
This site is the only web site specifically devoted to the J&W, ANSI and
ISO versions of the Pascal language (the original Pascal language).
The features you will find on the site are:
* A list of available ISO 7185 Pascal implementations available for your
use.
* The ANSI-ISO Pascal FAQ, including
+ What is ISO 7185 Pascal ?
+ The history of Pascal.
+ Status of standards.
+ Difference between several nonstandard implementations such
as Borland, Delphi, and Apple with the standard.
+ What subset of Pascal is acceptable to ALL implementations,
even non-standard ones.
+ Can standard Pascal be crashed ?
+ How to perform strings in standard Pascal.
+ How to perform a "type cast" in standard Pascal (yes, really).
+ What is the extended Pascal standard.
* A complete overview of the rules and working of ISO 7185 Pascal.
* History and BIO on Niklaus Wirth, Pascal's originator.
* The complete standards documents, including the ISO 7185 standard.
* A collection of ISO 7185 Pascal compatible programs, including:
+ Pascal-s, a compiler/interpreter for a Pascal subset.
+ P4 compiler/interpreter, the same one UCSD was based on.
+ Pretty printer.
+ Basic-s, a tiny basic intepreter.
* The Yacc and Flex parsing grammar for ISO 7185 (for people building
Pascal compilers as a student project).
* Information on the original CDC 6400 working basis of Pascal.
