Summary
'Welcome to the third edition of Oh! Pascal! Now, when I lecture I encourage any student who isn't so confident to make a smart friend, and to stick by her side for the term. After all, that's how I survived by own first programming class. When I write, I try to be that friend...' - from the Preface
