This practical guide to Turbo PASCAL 6.0 is especially for those who view learning a new programming language as a daunting task. It simplifies the language by giving new programmers a complete overview of the PASCAL 6.0 environment, from its interactive debugger and mouse-controlled window and menu system, through its advanced graphics and object-oriented programming capabilities. The book explains how to write, edit, compile, run and debug useful programs by using self-checks, tips and end-of-chapter exercises. Also covered are the new features of Turbo PASCAL 6.0 - the Borland Graphics Interface (BGI), Turbo Vision, OOP techniques and the OOP toolkit.
