Publisher's Synopsis
The arrival of Turbo Pascal on the market for high level languages quite rightly created a stir. Contrary to what one might expect, this is not another Pascal compiler but the implementation of a wholly new concept of a development environment for personal or professional software.;A level of interactivity nearly equivalent to that of a Basic interpreter, together with fast compilation and execution as well as extensive memory access facilities, are a series of advantages programmers will not want to do without once they have tried them.;No compiler has ever provided such ease of use or such performance levels. This product, through its unique qualities and its low cost, will overcome any lingering hesitation amongst those who have not yet dared try Pascal.;The procedures and functions proposed here are not simply examples, but can be used directly, as new instructions, in programs and progress from the simplest (a few instructions, or even just one instruction) to a level of complexity which should always remain within the bounds of what is strictly necessary. In most cases they provide a convenient and modular extension to the basic language.
