@pahoittelemme Turbo Pascal didn't die?

@JigmeDatse No, just reincarnated as an actor.

@pahoittelemme @JigmeDatse it didn’t though most people use FreePascal these days.

I did some of the recent AdventOfCode tasks with GNU Pascal, really enjoying TP6-style OOP.

@mirabilos @pahoittelemme Kind of was making a conspiracy theory joke... But, I've not done Pascal in ages...
Show threadmirabilosMay 25
@JigmeDatse @pahoittelemme I had not either but it was very refreshing.

@JigmeDatse @mirabilos @pahoittelemme

It still lives in embarcadero Delphi, Free Pascal and Lazarus :)

@pahoittelemme I really enjoyed Turbo Pascal in the 1986 classic 'Computer Programming 101'.

I laughed, I cried, I got mad; it was a journey of discovery.

The sequel kinda sucked though. They swapped out the main character for some guy I never heard of or seen since. I think his name was 'Smalltalk' or something like that.

And then came LISP which was the nicest file processing language ever invented.

@pahoittelemme @_xhr_ Which newer features does Pedro Pascal support?

@dentaku @pahoittelemme @_xhr_ Supports a diverse type system from what I've seen 😉

@pahoittelemme The Remix led to the linguistic consensus that "Pedro > Turbo"

@pahoittelemme I find it hard to believe that Turbo Pascal was as popular 20 years ago as Pedro Pascal is between seasons of The Last Of Us.

@pahoittelemme TurboPascal was a game changer, so far ahead of us time.

@pahoittelemme I still have my Turbo Pascal install disks. Do you still have your Pedro Pascal install disks?
