If then else, Error in website? 2 years 6 months ago #17456

Peter Heckert Topic Author Visitor	www.pilotlogic.com/sitejoom/index.php/ab...-then-else-statement elseif is not a Pascal keyword. Pascal does not interpret non Nil and nozero values as true. The examples dont compile. It seems there is another language than pascal described here.

Thank you and Happy new Year!

This statement in chapter 1. Syntax is also wrong:
"Pascal assumes any non-zero and non-nil values as true and if it is either zero or nil then it is assumed as false value."
Should read: Pascal assumes only boolean expressions or values as true or false everything else is syntax error..

And the brackets in if statements are allowed in Pascal, but are superfluous and not necessary..
Also wrong is this:

program ifelseChecking;
var
{local variable definition }
a : integer;

a is not a local variable (which is on stack) in this case, it is a global variable with static lifetime and is in Data section.
