What a mess. Pascal with C-isms bolted on. I have used Borland Pascal for a while an dabbled in Delphi as well but quickly found out that Pascal is not really suitable for any real programming work where you need to restructure a program half way sometimes. Having 4 or 5 different string types also doesn't help. If you need to resort to C-isms anyway then better use the real deal (C or C++)... If you don't want to use C/C++ then look a C#, Java or Python. |

PL/M rules. |

Its endless. With all the time and effort wasted here in this forum you could have coded a graphics package in COBOL. Just as futile, but at least *something* works in the end >:D >:D :horse: |
