Commission Internationale Permanente pour l'Epreuve des Armes à Feu Portatives regarding pressure are specified in the unit bar. Though the bar is not a SI unit like the pascal, nor a cgs unit, it is accepted for use with the SI by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology. The bar is widely used in descriptions of pressure because it is only about 1.3% smaller than "standard" atmospheric pressure, and is legally recognized in countries of the European Union. Conversion between the units bar and the MPa is however easy since 10 bar = 1 MPa. If there are any contradictions between new decisions and preceding decisions adopted at
Comparison of Pascal and Delphi does not go into Delphi-specific extensions to the language, which are numerous and still increasing. 1. The way procedures and functions can be passed as parameters differs: Delphi requires explicit procedural types to be declared where Standard Pascal does not. 2. Delphi does not support so called 'extraprocedural gotos', in which goto statements may reference targets outside the current procedure/function body. 3. Standard Pascal has file 'buffer variables', together with 'get' and 'put' standard procedures that operate on them. Neither are supported in Delphi. 4. Given a variant record in Standard Pascal, the size of a particular variant can be
