Borland/Inprise Delphi

Introduction

The programming language that takes the user-friendly interface of Visual Basic and combines it with the precise control and speed of the language C++ is named Delphi.
This means that Delphi is a rapid application development (RAD) environment, which has a modern object-oriented programming language and an extensible component-based architecture.
Like in Visual Basic you can drag for example a standard Windows button from the Component Palette and drop it onto a standard window that in Delphi is called Form.
The source code that it is used in Delphi is named Object Pascal. Of course integrated debugging is available, also CPU View and FPU View are included.
Example:

If A = B then
ShowMessage ('A equals B');

So, with Delphi and a pretty good knowledge of Object Pascal language you can develop efficient and fast applications for Windows 95/98 or Windows NT/2000.
