A simple, hands-on guide to Turbo Pascal 6.0 written in our popular self-teaching guide format. Step-by-step, it demystifies Turbo Pascal by walking new programmers through the entire Pascal 6.0 environment--from its interactive debugger and mouse-controlled window and menu systems through its advanced graphics and object-oriented programming capabilities. Emphasizing a ``learn by doing approach, it clearly explains how to write, edit, compile, run and debug useful programs. Includes a thorough introduction to the object-oriented programming techniques of Pascal 6.0. New features such as the Borland Graphics Interface (BGI), Turbo Vision and the OOP toolkit are also examined. Packed with self-checks, tips and end-of-chapter exercises to enhance learning.
