Pascal was invented as a language to teach students structured programming languages. A popular dialect, turbo pascal was part developed by anders Hejlsberg who went on to design delphi and .net After coding on delphi for close to 10 years,its a language I would recommend to anyone who wants to develop a career as a Kenyan software developer.

I think Python is better suited to beginners for all practical purposes. It is simple and you can almost immediately start using it to learn programming concepts with a basic interpreter.

Guys. I have no problem with python as a language. It is brilliant. I use it myself. However it shields you from many things like pointers. And memory access. Or how to implement a list. Or a doubly linked list. Or a tree. From first principles. Without using built own types. These are things good programmers need to understand well before using higher level languages. There are two issues here. Teaching programming CONCEPTS and teaching programming are different things. On Wednesday, May 30, 2012, Kelvin wrote:

However it shields you from many things like pointers. And memory access. Or how to implement a list. Or a doubly linked list. Or a tree. From first principles. Without using built own types. These are things good programmers need to understand well before using higher level languages.
It is true that as a Computer programmer you may have to really go low and talk to the "bare metal machine". In practice, this is rarely done if you ask me.

There are two issues here. Teaching programming CONCEPTS and teaching programming are different things.
My point is, concepts such as pointer arithmetic, data structures and algorithms O/O, etc are better appreciated by people who have a fairly good understanding of the basics of Programming (string, functions, looping constructs, classes, libraries). My other problem is that the "low-level" stuff is what actually makes beginners develop the mentality that programming is tough and look for alternative professions. My approach would be to start-off with the really simple and interesting before taking it a step lower for the really motivated learners. Martin.

You misunderstand me. I'm not saying you do low level or assembly work. I'm saying to be a good developer you need to know the fundamentals of how lists, tuples, dictionaries, trees etc work so that when you are using your python or java or C# you know where best to use which structures. Look at it this way. Nowadays you can diagose many cars for problems by hooking them up to diagnostic computers. However a mechanic who uses diagnistic computers AND knows how to diagnose issues using his ears, eyes and training I would say is a better mechanic.

@Martin substantiate you argument honestly Pascal only exists as Delphi in the modern programming as much I am legend to it Broda, the last time I did it it was in class and that was it. try and list a Pascal software currently in use and you will realize almost null but not to forget that this language is like Emperor Caesar.

If you read well into what am saying, I have not opposed the idea of teaching deeper topics to *good* programmers. *It is important to learn such concepts*. What am kinda' opposed to is the issue of teaching it to absolute beginners. If you looked keenly I did not respond to @Rad's argument for the same reason. I still believe that it is not a must to learn them before touching high-level languages. My main reason is that: 1) They might appear to be too complex for the novice and discourage some of them from continuing with coding. Most of the data structuring / memory management tasks are abstracted by your compilers so it makes them easy to use. 2) The other reason might be that they are already optimised for you + computers are fast with a lot of memory you cannot really achieve significant levels of efficiency by doing some of these things by hand, 3) Most applications in the real world done by a majority of programmers actually use very simple data structures and algorithms. Consider most web apps whose work is mainly to expose the contents of a relational database. Conclusion: Productivity for a programmer is more important in the modern day, this is what should be focused on when teaching IMHO. Martin.
idea Brother.
