The '''Pascal''' [[programming language]] was developed by [[Niklaus Wirth]] as a tool for [[structured programming]] which would at the same time be simple to process for a [[compiler]]. Wirth named the language in honor of [[Blaise Pascal]]. He based the language on the [[Algol programming language]]. Wirth also developed [[Modula programming language|Modula-2]], a language similar to Pascal which also supports object oriented programming.
