Mastering Turbo Pascal 5 is a fast and efficient programming environment, designed for developing, testing, compiling, and debugging programs, and for creating stand-alone applications that can be performed directly from DOS. For a wide range of experience levels.

This book is concerned with language skills and language understanding rather than programming methodology. No mention is made of testing, and no attention given to the environment in which programs must be entered, or executed. It is assumed that a reader will be familiar with these matters.

Third edition (of a 1986 book!) presents details on versions 3.2 and 3.3 along with a guide to the difference among the many variants of DOS. No bibliography. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Intended as a second course on programming with data structures, this book is based on the notion of an abstract data type which is defined as an abstract mathematical model with a defined set of operations.
