- Aldipower 6y agoSame here, although 5 years later. I've learned static typing, byte handling, string handling, array handling, arguments by reference !, arguments by copy and even OOP with it. It was very easy to read and well structured. Clearly structured but powerful learning language at this time.
- neovive 6y agoSame for me as well. In school, we started with GW-BASIC and moved to Turbo Pascal. Pascal was a great learning language and the fundamental concepts I learned in Pascal translated very well to other languages. Looking back, I didn't even realize there's a difference between Turbo Pascal and official Pascal. The Turbo Pascal IDE is all we knew and it worked very well on those IBM PC's.
