My understanding (please correct me) is that Turbo Pascal on PC was actually Modula2 ?
- linsomniac 3y agoThe recent discussion here about Turbo Pascal commenters said it was written in assembly. Seems to be supported by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_Pascal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_Pascal
- greggman7 3y agoI'm not suggesting Turbo Pascal was written in Modula2, I'm saying it implemented Modula2, not Pascal. Modula2 is a superset of Pascal. Pascal never had modules AFAIK but Turbo Pascal did. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modula-2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modula-2
- pjmlp 3y agoNo, Borland did have a Modula-2 compiler (where actually Martin Odersky of Scala fame worked on), but they decided to focus on Turbo Pascal and sold it.
- FabHK 3y agoThere was a fun break-out clone on the Atari ST, Bolo, that was written in Modula-2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolo_(Breakout_clone) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolo_(Breakout_clone) http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-st-bolo_8775.html http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-st-bolo_8775.html
