Really?  I'm not saying you are wrong, but I don't know of any cases
where it is still used.

I once taught programming using Pascal (at a university), but that was
(good grief!) three decades ago and it was the last year that Pascal was
used.  (I didn't much like doing it, but there was an up-side: a wide
range of very good, inexpensive, textbooks.)
