'''''Pascal on the Macintosh: A Graphical Approach''''' by '''David A. Niguidula and Andries van Dam''', Addison-Wesley, 1987, ISBN 0-201-16588-0, Library of Congress 86-20668. The scan is '''715 pages'''. | |||
'''This book is held twice.''' The other copy is | |||
[[Pascal On the Macintosh A Graphical Apprach 1987]], whose page title misspells "Approach". The two | |||
are the same edition and the same ISBN; the scans differ in page count by one (716 against 715) and in | |||
size, but not in content. | |||
== What it covers == | |||
A first course in Pascal built around graphics, from the Brown University group. Andries | |||
van Dam is a co-author of the standard computer-graphics textbook, and the approach shows: the | |||
exercises draw rather than print. | |||
== This is not a repair source == | |||
This is a '''programming''' book. It contains '''no schematics, no parts lists, no component values, | |||
no voltages, no connector pinouts and no service procedures''', and nothing in it should be cited for | |||
a hardware figure. Apple's software documentation and its compiler manuals describe the machine as | |||
the programmer sees it, which is not the machine the technician sees. | |||
For hardware data use: | |||
* [[:Category:Apple Service Source|Apple Service Source]] — Apple's own service manuals, module | |||
level: specifications, symptom charts, take-apart and module part numbers | |||
* Apple's '''Developer Notes''' — the one class of Apple developer document that ''does'' carry | |||
rail currents, expansion-slot power budgets and connector pinouts. Several are held here, for | |||
example [[Macintosh IIci Developer Note]], [[Macintosh IIsi Developer Note]] and | |||
[[Macintosh LC 475 and Quadra 605 Developer Note]]. | |||
* [[Macintosh Repair & Upgrade Secrets]] and [[The Dead Mac Scrolls]] — component-level, for | |||
the compact Macs | |||
== Related documents held here == | |||
* [[Pascal On the Macintosh A Graphical Apprach 1987]] — the duplicate copy | |||
* [[Pascal for the Macintosh 1986]] | |||
