Hello, world! sais the IBM Personal Computer 5150 - Part 5: Pascal
Hello, world!
In this series of videos, I'm putting myself in the place of a computer programmer in 1981, starting out on the brand new IBM Personal Computer, model 5150. This iconic computer is the very first "PC" in the modern sense of the word. As such, its operation and programming environment were brand new to a 1981 software developer.
In this episode, we look at one of the very first compilers available for the IMB PC:
IBM's Pascal compiler.
Resources used in this episode are:
