Since the first edition of this book was written in 1977, there has
been a tremendous increase in the use of Pascal. This increased use
has had two significant effects. (1) It has produced a bett er
understanding of the facilities of Pascal and their use. (2) It has
fostered the production of the ISO standard for Pascal. This second
edition reflects both this better understanding and the
clarifications and changes to Pascal which have resulted from the
production of the BSljlSO Pascal standard. The standard (BS 6192,
which supplies the technical content for ISO 7185) is the
definitive document on Pascal. My work on the Pascal standard has
convinced me that the description of a programming language may be
tutorial, or it may be definitive, or it may be neither! The
chapters of this book do not constitute a definitive description of
Pascal. They are essentially tutorial. The book is based on an
introductory lecture course given at Manchester. In addition to
lectures, the course consists of two kinds of practical work. The
first is based on the solution of short pencil-and-paper exercises.
The second requires the student to write complete programs and run
them using interactive computer terminals. Each chapter of the book
concludes with exercises and problems suitable forthese purposes.
Although solutions to all of these are not presented in the book,
teaching staff may obtain them by application to the authors.
