	The Pascal Programming Language
		The Pascal programming language was originally developed by Niklaus Wirth, a member of the International Federation of Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 2.1.
		Professor Niklaus Wirth developed Pascal to provide features that were lacking in other languages of the time.
		His principle objectives for Pascal were for the language to be efficent to implement and run, allow for the development of well structured and well organized programs, and to serve as a vehicle for the teaching of the important concepts of computer programming.
