 Pascal was born from a simple yet profound philosophy: **programming should be clear, structured, and understandable**. Niklaus Wirth designed Pascal not just as a programming language, but as a tool for teaching and learning the fundamental concepts of computer science.
 
-Wirth famously said, "A good programming language is a conceptual universe for thinking about programming." Pascal provides exactly that—a clean, logical framework that mirrors how we naturally think about solving problems.
