Why pascal is the one?

We have C++ for structured pgm.

Please tell me direct answer why pascal is more suited to a structured program with out comparing with C language.

Pascal is an influential imperative and procedural programming language, designed in 1968-1969 and published in 1970 by Niklaus Wirth as a small and efficient language intended to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring.

Pascal is structured programing.

Pascal is more suited to a structured program, because Pascal was designed (in 1970 by Nicklaus) to force programmers for a structured programming style. Pascal has successors, Modula and Oberon, which add module and access to system resources.

Why?, please tell me exact answer.

Pascal has and, or, and mod where C uses &&, ||, and %.
c is case sensitive but pascal is not.

Pascal has:

if cond then stmt else stmt
while cond do stmt
repeat stmt until cond
for id := expr to expr do stmt and for id := expr downto expr do stmt
case expr of expr : stmt; ... expr : stmt; else: stmt; end

C has:

if (cond) stmt else stmt
while (cond) stmt
do stmt while (cond)
for (expr; cond; expr) stmt
switch (expr) { case expr : stmt; ... case expr : stmt; default: stmt }

Pascal is a procedural programming language, designed in 1968-1969 and published in 1970 by Niklaus Wirth as a small and efficient language intended to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring.

PASCAL is sturucture Programming Language.

The clock interrupt handle on a computer requires 2 msec per clock tick. The clock runs at 60Hz. What percent is devoted to the clock ?
