Using pascal in a fortran environment
Patricia R. Mohilner · Software Practice and Experience · 1977
Abstract The ability to use existing libraries is essential if a programming language is to be of practical value. This paper presents the experience gained in using Pascal in a Fortran environment and details the resolution of problems encountered in file communication, parameter passing and establishing default values under the condition of mixed language programming. It is concluded that Pascal is viable as a practical programming language, provided that EXTERN and FORTRAN procedures are implemented.
