MS whose expensive compiler and math libraries (upwards to $600) were

Indeed, if someone prefers pascal (hey, any language is OK with me, even
Fortran--wink Roy)

Here is 5.5 ... I would suspect it will get you what you want:

Octave (the Matlab clone) is available for almost all platforms, and is
quite easy to learn to use. For things like manipulating matrices and
vectors, it's pretty slick. The real Matlab has better graphics
packages (in terms of integration with the package, etc.), but from a
straight out computation standpoint, Octave works just as well.


Hello Richard, John and Jim,

First, Thanks for the info. I downloaded TP55 via the link. Good
thing that Embarcadero (sounds 100% Español) makes available older
versions of popular software.

One of the options I had in mind, was to use an older version of
Delphi. I prefer this above VB. Structured design isn’t strange to me,
so Pascal, is still attractive for me (though it is not as popular as
years ago). My lecturer for high level programming was Mr. L.
Ammeraal.

I know Turbo Pascal was very popular. Later, many people I know used
also the Delphi product (both free time and professional SW
development). After that some people switched to C++ builder.

Best regards,

Wim
