| 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. |
