Microsoft Pascal is a discontinued implementation of the Pascal programming language developed by Microsoft for compiling programs for running on its MS-DOS and Xenix operating systems and, in later versions, on OS/2.
History[]
Microsoft Pascal version 1.0 was released in 1980, with the last version of Microsoft Pascal (version 4.0) being in 1988; it was superseded by Microsoft QuickPascal, a cheaper development tool that Microsoft produced in order to compete with Borland's Turbo Pascal.
Microsoft Pascal was priced at $300, whereas QuickPascal was priced between $25 and $50.
