Yes, that's a fair question. And to answer it, I bring your attention
to page 46, section 2.1, /Introduction/, in
/Data Structures/
/With Abstract Data Types and Pascal/
published in 1985, written by Stubbs and Webre.
Chapter 2 deals with an atomic data type and two structured data types
that will form the basis for representing and implementing almost all
of the more complex data structures that we shall study. The atomic
type is pointer, and the structured types are arrays and records.
Their occurrences as built-in data types in most modern general-pur-
pose programming languages such as C, Pascal, Ada, Mesa, Modula-2, and
PL/I attest to their fundamental nature. They are at a lower level of
abstraction than the other data structures we shall study.
This chapter also introduces linked list data structures. This is
done for tow reasons. First, linked lists illustrate how pointers are
used to construct linked data structures. Second, they serve as a re-
view on the use of Pascal pointers.
And I cannot imagine anything more modern and maintainable than that.
Do you?
PostScript.
% I took the liberty of including alt.folklore.computers, in case some-
% one there wants to comment on a better book on data structures,
% Pascal, and maintainable software.

[added in comp.lang.pl1] I'm not a Pascal programmer, but the Pascal code is inherently maintainable. The problem is that "everyone" has decided that Pascal, like PL/I, is "outdated", so no one bothers to learn it any more. I've looked at Free Pascal and it's an amazing language and an amazing compiler from what I could see. I don't know anything about Rust, but C is a half-step lower than Pascal in readability and maintainability. The only problem I ever had with Pascal is that after starting with PL/I it felt like a step backwards.

Pascal is a teaching language with a lot of restrictions on it, basically designed to be a more flexible Algol. As such, it's not really usable as a development language without extensions, and everybody's extensions are different. The Borland extensions are really good, though, and make Pascal into an excellent development language. The Delphi extensions were good too... but they were different and not compatible with the Borland extensions. The nice thing about Pascal is the restrictions. It is possible to hurt yourself with pointers in Pascal, but nowhere near as easily as with C. >I don't know anything about Rust, but C is a half-step lower than Pascal >in readability and maintainability. The only problem I ever had with >Pascal is that after starting with PL/I it felt like a step backwards. I would consider C more than one step lower in terms of readability and maintainability. PL/1 was too big for its own sake.... it was so large and so extended that everyone programmed in their own personal subset which made programmers reading one another's code difficult. Ada took this problem and made it far worse. -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis."

IBM Los Gatos lab was doing lots of stuff with Metaware's TWS ... eventually doing a mainframe Pascal for implementing VLSI chip design tools ... which led to VS/PASCAL for mainframe and RS6000 unix workstation (including used for implementing mainframe TCP/IP product) 1992, IBM has one of the largest losses in history of US companies and was being reorganized into the 13 "baby blues" in preparation for breaking up the company (take-off on "baby bells" breakup a decade earlier) https://web.archive.org/web/20101120231857/http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,977353,00.html https://content.time.com/time/subscriber/article/0,33009,977353-1,00.html we had already left IBM but get a call from the bowels of Armonk asking if we could help with the breakup of the company. Before we get started, the board brings in the former president of Amex as CEO to try and save the company, who (somewhat) reverses the breakup. Part of IBM restructure was unloading vlsi tools on industry tool vendor ... and they required it run on SUN platforms (pervasive in the industry). I got a contract to port a 50,000 statement vs/pascal VLSI application to SUN (pascal ... in retrospect it would have been easier to have rewitten it in "C"). SUN pascal appeared to have been limited to educational uses *AND* support had been outsourced to an organization on the opposite side of the planet (easy to walk into sun hdqtrs, but didn't actually help a lot). -- virtualization experience starting Jan1968, online at home since Mar1970

I'm not surprised. Pascal is not a bad language, but Sun's Pascal compiler was a descendent of the UCB Pascal system done on the PDP-11 (starting with a draft by Ken Thompson, who took it to Berkeley during a sabbatical year in 1975 or '76) and later ported to the VAX and then Sun workstations. That was mainly intended for teaching; using it for production software always felt kind of like an afterthought. - Dan C

Borland wrote good compilers. As I said, I have glanced at Free Pascal, and know of one excellent package written in it. It seems like a solid and very powerful system, but the industry has passed it by and moved on to other things.

Pascal compilers seemed to fall into two roughly separate groups: on the one hand, you had the mini/mainframe-based implementations, which all tended to stick closely to the standard (a notable exception being DEC’s VAX compiler, from version 2 onwards, which had some remarkable extensions to handle system programming). While on the other hand, you had the implementations on microprocessor-based machines, which all seemed to derive from UCSD Pascal in some way. It turns out there is an official standard, ISO10206, dating from 1990, which specifies a whole lot of extensions to old “standard” Pascal (ISO7185), including modules, namespace qualification, type schemata, nice string functions, “bindable” variables, structured value constructors and other fun stuff.

The VAX Pascal was certainly good enough for production systems software, given the access to the starlet interface library.

I wrote everything in Macro-32 or BCPL.

On VMS, sure. But the Berkeley Pascal system for BSD? Eh.... - Dan C.

Pointer handling is less cumbersom than C, which sometimes requires lots and lots of casts. For structures I convert C's typedefs by declaring a base_structure, for example "some_structure_type" and then declaring instances "structure_instance like some_structure_type".

If you're using lots and lots of pointer casts in C, either you're
writing some very low-level code or you're probably doing something
wrong. If you find that you need to cast a pointer of type foo* to
bar*, consider that perhaps it should have been of type bar* in the
first place.

There is also an issue with C syntax being backwards compared to Pascal, but you didn’t raise that. > For structures I convert C's typedefs by declaring a base_structure, > for example "some_structure_type" and then declaring instances > "structure_instance like some_structure_type". The need for “like” means you have to have at least one instance, which somehow becomes the “canonical” instance. What’s so special about it?
