Why don't you try compiling C code in Notepad++ and then come back and tell me C can't be compiled.

you can compile python, but a quick google search shows the speedup is minimal.

Because C displaced it, for the reasons listed in ``Why Pascal Is Not My Favorite Programming Language''. Delphi is kind of hanging on and Free Pascal is pretty good, but that's all.

Pascal is too verbose, like BASIC.

Can't do that? Too much interpreter dependency in the OS?

I was learning Pascal in high school, it was good. But indeed it made my wrist hurt. Too fucking verbose.well, that's why I love Ruby, although it's slow as fuck

Pascal is fine. I prefer Scheme and Haskell.
