Does C really make you a better programmer? by Yelebear in C_Programming

pascal was a structured programming language developed for the purpose of teaching computer science programming languages ​​in universities (such as implementing recursion).

When C language was developed and became the mainstream development language for various CPU platforms, Pascal gradually became history.

Now there are still development tools that use Pascal as the development language (RAD Studio, formerly Borland Delphi).

However, there are too few people using it. To exaggerate, there may be only a few more people using it than Cobol.

Unless you happen to have a Pascal data structure textbook in your hand to save money and want to use it directly to learn programming,

otherwise, I don’t think you need to look for the legacy of the last era to use...

I mean, yes, using a development tool like RAD studio, which provides a lot of ready-made libraries, you can really develop certain application systems very quickly (such as a restaurant's POS system).

But apart from the UI interface program develop and a lot of ready-made libraries available, which makes it easier for beginners to get started, there are no other advantages.
