Pascal (unit) dB SPL, or 20 µPa. The airtightness of buildings is measured at 50 Pa. The units of atmospheric pressure commonly used in meteorology were formerly the bar, which was close to the average air pressure on Earth, and the millibar. Since the introduction of SI units, meteorologists generally measure pressures in hectopascals (hPa) unit, equal to 100 pascals or 1 millibar. Exceptions include Canada, which use kilopascals (kPa). In many other fields of science, the SI is preferred, which means Pa with a prefix (in multiples of 1000) is preferred. Many countries also use the millibars. In practically all other
Pascal (programming language) UCSD language features survive today, including in Borland's dialect. In 1990, an extended Pascal standard was created as ISO/IEC 10206, which is identical in technical content<ref name="ISO/ANSI identical"></ref> to IEEE/ANSI 770X3.160-1989 Niklaus Wirth's Zurich version of Pascal was issued outside ETH in two basic forms, the CDC 6000 compiler source, and a porting kit called Pascal-P system. The Pascal-P compiler left out several features of the full language. For example, procedures and functions used as parameters, undiscriminated variant records, packing, dispose, interprocedural gotos and other features of the full compiler were omitted. UCSD Pascal, under Professor Kenneth Bowles, was based
