Years ago I wrote a Pascal interpreter in #swiftlang so I thought, why not try making it an iOS app. Pascal is still taught at some school as the first programming language and the retro theme is just so nostalgic. #iosdev
@igorkulman @krzyzanowskim Neat. I wish Apple still supported non-Apple languages out-of-the box. Would prefer Pascal/Modula-2 over Swift. ;)
@krzyzanowskim @igorkulman lol. Is this a competition to see who can name the most obscure language they’ve actually used? Yup, played with Ada. ;)
@SergKoren @igorkulman I was introduced to Ada at the Uni when we discussed parallelism and whatnot. I found it nice
@krzyzanowskim @igorkulman It was cool, even for a government language. I got into true parallelism on Tandem/HP NonStop computers with TAL. (A very obscure language). That was my professional career for almost 50 years ;) Showing my age.
@SergKoren @krzyzanowskim I guess I should aim the app at nostalgic people like me seeing this discussion :)
@igorkulman @krzyzanowskim Make it work on a Mac/cross-platform, that’s where real development lives. Anyone remember TML Pascal?
