Pascal is easier for learning the basics of programming and for setting up = small test programs. The issue is when, even as a hobbyist, your projects become more ambitious.= At some point you need to mix various components, or change platform, or w= ork on several systems. Sooner or later you face the fragmentation of the Pascal language, which is= not a problem if you stay forever with one Pascal dialect.
