*** I feel in this case that the VSI Pascal dialect does not have enough notable distinctions to warrant a standalone article, unlike some of the other dialects which have their own articles. [[User:Vt320|Vt320]] ([[User talk:Vt320|talk]]) 22:03, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

== Enumerations missing in the article ==
 
Nothing about enumerate types. The table:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Data type
! Type of values which the variable is capable of storing
|-
| [[integer (computer science)|integer]]
| integer (whole) numbers
|-
| [[floating-point arithmetic|real]]
| floating-point numbers
|-
| [[boolean type|boolean]]
| the values True or False
|-
| [[character (computing)|char]]
| a single character from an ordered character set
|-
| [[set (computer science)|set]]
| equivalent to an array of [[boolean type|boolean]] values
|-
| [[Array data type|array]]
| a countable group of any of the preceding data types or records
|-
| [[Record (computer science)|record]]
| A collection of any of the preceding data types
|-
| [[string (computer science)|string]]
| a sequence or "string" of characters is declared as a "packed array of char" with a starting index of 1. These can be assigned string constants and individual characters can be accessed as elements of the array.
|}
must have an enumeration row, maybe:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Data type
! Type of values which the variable is capable of storing
|-
| [[integer (computer science)|integer]]
| integer (whole) numbers
|-
| [[floating-point arithmetic|real]]
| floating-point numbers
|-
| [[boolean type|boolean]]
| the values True or False
|-
| [[character (computing)|char]]
| a single character from an ordered character set
|-
| [[set (computer science)|set]]
| equivalent to an array of [[boolean type|boolean]] values
|-
| [[Enumerated type|enums]]
| type including different lables
|-
| [[Array data type|array]]
| a countable group of any of the preceding data types or records
|-
| [[Record (computer science)|record]]
| A collection of any of the preceding data types
|-
| [[string (computer science)|string]]
| a sequence or "string" of characters is declared as a "packed array of char" with a starting index of 1. These can be assigned string constants and individual characters can be accessed as elements of the array.
