===Apple Pascal===

Pascal became a major language in the programming world in the 1970s, with high-quality implementations on most [[minicomputer]] platforms and [[microcomputer]]s. Among the laterlatter was the [[UCSD Pascal]] system, which compiled to an intermediate ''p-System'' code format that could then run on multiple platforms. Apple licensed UCSD and used it as the basis for their [[Apple Pascal]] system for the [[Apple II]] and [[Apple III]].

Pascal became one of the major languages in the company in this period. With the start of the [[Apple Lisa]] project, Pascal was selected as the main programming language of the platform, although this time as a ''compiler'' in contrast to the p-System ''interpreter''.
