Execute Pascal Online
You do not need to have your own environment to start learning Pascal programming! We have set up an on-line compiler for you that can be used to compile and execute the programs on-line.
For most of the examples available in this tutorial, you will find a Try it option at the top right corner of the code box. Use it to verify the programs and check the outcome with different options. Feel free to modify any example and execute it online.
program HelloWorld; uses crt; (* Here the main program block starts *) begin writeln('Hello, World!'); readkey; end.
