About this title

Synopsis:

This introduction to PASCAL helps the reader to get acquainted with the language's major features and to develop good programming technique. It emphasizes the benefits of spending time on careful program design. The design method of "functional decomposition" is explained. The notation used for design throughout the book is a general purpose pseudo-code. In this book, the reader discovers how to create and list files, run and amend programs and learns how, in PASCAL, integer numbers can be input, calculations done and output produced. Procedures with local variables and parameters are then introduced. Next, selection and repetition are dealt with, followed by processing character data. A case study in design and coding is followed by chapters on program layout, debugging and testing, systematic working, arrays, real numbers, top-down implementation and file handling. Actual programming practise is given through a variety of exercises.
