 Pascal programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pascal is an imperative computer programming language, developed in 1970 by Niklaus Wirth as a language particularly suitable for structured programming.
The first Pascal compiler was designed in Zurich for the CDC 6000 computer family, and it became operational in 1970.
In the early 1980s, UCSD Pascal was ported to the Apple II and Apple III computers to provide a structured alternative to the BASIC interpreters that came with the machines.

 Atari PASCAL - A Good Product?
ATARI also said that the program “was not suited for learning PASCAL or the ATARI 800 computer.” Furthermore, the absence of a compatible assembler (one which generates relocatable code), limited debugging tools, and incomplete documentation are considered to have reduced the usefulness of ATARI’s PASCAL.
PASCAL was released through the ATARI Program Exchange as unsupported software.
ATARI PASCAL is a well-written version of the standard language with a select few extensions to the base and a good complement of library routines.

 Jefferson Computer Museum - UCSD P-System Museum
Pascal and C developed contemporaneously in the early 1970s, but by most measures, C became the dominant programming language for applications for personal computers and workstations.
In this way, the p-code generated on one computer could be used to bootstrap the port of the P-System to another computer.
The source to the Terak version of UCSD Pascal and P-System version I.3 (August 1977) was uploaded to CompuServe's PDP-11 Forum in July 1984 by one of the earlier UCSD licensees, Eli Willner of Pecan Software, and remains there to this day - certainly one of the oldest files still on CompuServe.

 taoyue.com: Learn Pascal tutorial - History
Pascal grew out of ALGOL, a programming language intended for scientific computing.

 @UCSD: UCSD Pascal
UCSD Pascal may not be running on computers all over the world, but its influence remains.
A generation of computer programmers made their way to UCSD in part because they were influenced by UCSD Pascal.
To understand why UCSD Pascal was important, you have to transport yourself back to the time before computers were on every desk, before tiny, powerful chips and cheap memory existed.

Pascal is one of a series of languages put forth by one of the most prolific computer language creators, Nicklaus Wirth, a professor at Institut fur informatik, ETH, Zurich, Switzerland.
Pascal is also unusual for forging an effective compromise between language simplicity, power, and matching of language structures to underlying machine implementation.
Pascal was named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal, who created a calculating machine (not a true computer).

 P4
UCSD Pascal introduced several extensions to the language that are still in use, including units and named file handling.
Bowles figured that his students would profit more from a home computer version of the system than yet another compiler running on the huge power sucking mainframes the universities typically had (mostly because that was the kind of computer donated to them).
This was possible because an ideal machine was created, and the first pass output assembly code for that.

UCSD Pascal can pack within one byte quantities that are less than half a byte in size.
In UCSD Pascal, a pointer is one word (2 bytes) long, since it only needs to point to a 64K address space.
UCSD Routines Missing from Turbo - TIME UCSD Pascal defines the routine TIME to return the machine clock contents as the low- and high-word components of a count of "tics" elapsed since last boot.

 UCSD p-System Overview
As of 1980, the UCSD p-System (now being called the UCSD System) was available on DEC PDP-11 (separate versions for true PDP-11, LSI-11, and Terak), Intel 8080 / Zilog Z-80, Motorola 6800, and 6502 systems.
It's true that almost all development for the system was done in UCSD's implementation of Pascal, but other languages were available.
Later, Western Digital developed a microprocessor whose instruction set was UCSD p-code.

In HP Pascal, a parameter of the form "var s : string" will match a string variable of any size; a hidden size parameter is passed which may be accessed by the Pascal strmax function.
In HP Pascal a procedure pointer must be stored as a struct containing both a pure C function pointer and a "static link," a pointer to the parent procedure's locals.
The main goal of the translation is to produce C files which are pleasant and "natural" enough to be acceptable as the new source files for a program.

 p-System: Description, Background, Utilities
The (then UCSD) p-System is a microcomputer operating system developed starting in about 1977 (therefore before DOS, and probably before CP/M), to run, not on any physical machine in use at the time, but on a "pseudo-machine" which was emulated by an interpreter, which starts running as part of the p-System's booting.
The emulator is the only part of the operating system written in the native code of the host machine.
All the rest of the system is in UCSD Pascal, compiled to the so-called "p-code" instruction set of the pseudo-machine.
