So I found this Turbo Pascal 4 book, which apparently belongs to my dad

Oh god

@Alice I don’t know, but it’s so painful to read... I’m impressed my dad had so much patience to study this

@Alice I was curious so tried searching for the procedure name oneeqn, got this http://whatmeanings.com/14/...

have to say it's not a lot weirder than the code

Moar

Moar 2

@Alice the tongue always turns to the aching tooth

@Alice sorry

@Alice it was kinda harsh... I think?

@Alice nvm 🙃

The author was my lecturer.
Can't really recommend neither the language nor the lecturer.

I used to write code in turbo Pascal, was good times..

I would love to have it in English, maybe will check on amazon.

If you see how it is written reminds python structure

@Alice
Check python style will see similar things

I have The C++ Programming Language from my Dad, that's one heavy ass book

Looks pretty neat to me.
Widziałem gorsze podręczniki xd

Oh and he has also this

Sweet man! Yeah the code is funky but having books on retro tech is pretty cool. I had a commodore 64 basic book in my grandparents house :v apparently one of the cleaning ladys threw it out years ago cuz I have not found it :P

Piekne i przydatne, co jeszcze mozna chciec?

So many Poles in here we could already make a football gate.

I was learning Pascal as a first language at high school for programming basics. I thing most of the Polish high schoolers were. At least ones born before 1996 when education reform hit 'em hard.

@LinuxUser0001 to the non polish people here

I found this

@Wackoo Turbo Pascal + Assembler = Turbo Assembler. What can go wrong? xD

@JoshBent hehehe. Cool.

I too have some books from my dad. It's interesting to see how much coding developed, but still somehow stayed the same over 40 years.
