Key differences between Pascal and Erlang

CharacteristicPascalErlang
SyntaxPascal has a more traditional syntax with a strong emphasis on readability and clarity.Erlang has a unique syntax that is based on Prolog and uses pattern matching extensively.
ParadigmPascal is primarily an imperative and procedural language with support for structured programming.Erlang is a concurrent and functional programming language designed for building fault-tolerant systems.
TypingPascal has static typing, which means that variable types are checked at compile-time.Erlang has dynamic typing, which means that variable types are checked at runtime.
PerformancePascal is known for its efficient performance and is often used for systems that require high performance.Erlang is designed for high concurrency and fault-tolerance rather than raw performance.
Libraries and frameworksPascal has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available, although the ecosystem is not as extensive as some other languages.Erlang has a strong ecosystem with libraries and frameworks specifically designed for building distributed and fault-tolerant systems.
Community and supportPascal has a smaller community compared to some other languages, but there are still active forums and resources available for support.Erlang has a dedicated community with active support channels and resources.
Learning curvePascal has a relatively low learning curve, especially for programmers familiar with other procedural languages.Erlang has a steeper learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming concepts.
