Thanks for using the application!

====================================

Pascal is an influential imperative and procedural programming language, designed in 1968/9 and published in 1970 by Niklaus Wirth as a small and efficient language intended to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring. 

A derivative known as Object Pascal designed for object-oriented programming was developed in 1985. 

Pascal was developed by Niklaus Wirth and based on the ALGOL programming language, named in honor of the French mathematician and philosopher Blaise Pascal. 

Prior to his work on Pascal, Wirth had developed Euler and ALGOL W and later went on to develop the Pascal-like languages Modula-2 and Oberon. 

Initially, Pascal was largely, but not exclusively, intended to teach students structured programming. A generation of students used Pascal as an introductory language in undergraduate courses. Variants of Pascal have also frequently been used for everything from research projects to PC games and embedded systems. Newer Pascal compilers exist which are widely used. 

Pascal was the primary high-level language used for development in the Apple Lisa, and in the early years of the Mac. Parts of the original Macintosh operating system were hand-translated into Motorola 68000 assembly language from the Pascal sources. The popular typesetting system TeX by Donald E. Knuth was written in WEB, the original literate programming system, based on DEC PDP-10 Pascal, while an application like Total Commander was written in Delphi (Object Pascal). 

Object Pascal is still used for developing Windows applications. A cross-platform version called Free Pascal, with the Lazarus IDE, is popular with Linux users since it promises write once, compile anywhere, development.

### 1/5 — not interactive

*2024-08-14*

program is run on a remote server. not interactive which is kind of boring.

### 1/5 — Программа отстой понейший

*2022-02-03, version 13.0*

Нахрен нужна бесплатная версия когда даже один раз скомпелировать нельзя? Разработчик дебил.

### 4/5 — Works - Reasonable at $3 for unlimited compilations

*2019-02-10, version 11.1*

The only downsides (which are dictated by the iOS platform) are the need to recompile the program each time and the fact that data input cannot occur when the program is running. The program has to be compiled (and presumably run) remotely and the console output is shown locally. This is the only way to run simple Object pascal programs on iOS limited to a single source file. Have not tried anything more complex but easy enough to write on a computer (macOS/Windows/Linux) using Lazarus and send to your iPhone/iPad to run.

Major gripe: still runs FPC 3.0 rather than the latest version.

**Developer response:** You can buy unlimited compilations and use the application as much as you want!

### 5/5 — Great.  Definitely worth the purchase

*2018-05-06, version 11.1*

It is really good for writing quick Pascal programs & testing out snippets of code when using my computer would be overkill. It also seems to adhere pretty well to FreePascal.  

I bought the app so I don’t have to worry about running out of compiles it’s definitely worth the purchase price of $2.99.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2017-12-28*

This is not a free app. You have to pay to compile any programs you write. A bit misleading!

### 5/5 — Help

*2017-11-20, version 9.0*

It said: The program raises a runtime error. 

What can I do?

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2015-06-03, version 7.5*

Worst app ever...downloaded it a realized you had to pay to actually make it work....hate apps like this....😪

**Developer response:** Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

### 2/5 — Runtime error

*2015-05-06, version 7.0*

Can't run my program.

**Developer response:** Please fix errors in your program and try again.

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2014-09-25, version 6.2*

It's stupid that you have to pay to compile a project. Joke of an app

**Developer response:** You can buy unlimited compilations and you won't ever pay for it!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2014-05-03, version 4.5*

I am writing a compiler that targets many languages and this app is ideal for my purposes. Keep up the good work!
