Standard Pascal: User Reference Manual: user reference manual

The Story

The purpose of this manual is to provide a correct, comprehensive, and comprehensible reference for Pascal. Although the official Standard promulgated by the International Standards Organization (ISO) is 'correct' by definition, the precision and terseness required by a formal standard makes it quite difficult to understand. This book is aimed at students and implementors with merely human powers of understanding, and only a modest capacity for fasting and prayer in the search for the syntax or semantics of a domain-type or variant-selector.
