Abstract
Modula-2 was introduced in 1980 by its author Niklaus Wirth. Wirth is a well known computer scientist as a result of the widespread acceptance of his earlier programming language, Pascal. Modula-2, like Pascal, is a small, simple, consistent language. Modula-2 is an improvement of Pascal. It is an excellent learning language and it is also an excellent language for large, commercial and scientific applications.
