Pascal A B C Net – interesting Pascal

 

And with the rights of retro programming. I want to tell in shorts about programming language Pascal. And about a certain version of realization Pascal – Pascal Abc.Net. As it was written at authors website - https://pascalabc.net/, it is a system of programming. Simple and modern. For me it is retro theme, as I am a fan of old and cool Pascal. I am speaking about Turbo Pascal.

 By the way, and main feature, as for me, - it is interface. Programming system has its own visual style. It is different from classic blue dos window. And programming language, already, at the start has support of Russian language. So, you can print text with Russian language. If you want app with Russian support – this Pascal already has this feature.

 

Writeln(‘Привет Мир!’); //Privet Mir!  This means HELLO WORLD!

It will print - Привет Мир!   This is Russian letters, and it is written Privet Mir! This means HELLO WORLD! And it shows it on Russian language, and not as unknown letters.

And I test this Pascal in terms of my two text adventure games. First one - is very short. Test example, as I can say. About a nightmare. And second one – Curse of Sands. For me it is a big piece of text, and translation. And, I programmed it, very fast with Pascal ABC. It was not a big deal. So, it is casual Pascal.

And as a feature, I can say about new interface, it is absolutely new, and pretty good and easy to use. It is with windows orientation. And it is made its own way. But it is simple and easy to use. There is menu with options. Which are also simple and easy to understand. First thing you see, when you start this Pascal - it is about how it looks. A windows for Windows.  With its own editor and pack of menus. And it makes it as a cool thing, with compare with standard Pascal with blue screen. It has fully windows interface.
