Programming Macintosh Pascal (cover: "Includes Version 2.1") is a 1987 textbook by John J. DiElsi and Elaine S. Grossman, published by Macmillan Publishing Company, New York.

It is a course text for an introductory college programming course, also aimed at high-school advanced placement classes and self-study, teaching structured Pascal with Apple's Macintosh Pascal interpreter. It can be used with version 2.1 or the earlier release; Appendix H lists the differences, which include hard-disk use, removal of copy protection and larger programs. Answers to selected exercises are in Appendix G, the rest in a separate instructor's manual.[3]
