I was carrying a shoebox with my programs in 5 1/4 floppys in at 4th floor of my library where the had dozens of Apple II e PCs. One of of the programs was Turbo Pascal. The first computer science class in 1985 was in Pascal. Funny I was just as interested on the teachings of Blaise Pascal and Pascal's Wager. Like many ones of my generation we wrote an asteroid program where an asterisk was printed in a for loop at a random place between 0 an 79 and produced asterisks coming down the screen and the user had to navigate an caret left-right avoiding the the asterisks. This was not part of my boring assignments. I wrote it and shared with my friends and carried it in my shoebox filled with floppy disks.
Happy Birthday Turbo Pascal. (TP means something else in the US).
