Turbo Pascal is a software development system that includes a compiler and an integrated development environment for the Pascal programming language, running on CP/M, CP/M-86 and MS-DOS. It was developed by Borland under Philippe Kahn's leadership, and the Programming Language Database dates it to 1983 and credits Anders Hejlsberg as its creator. For versions 6 and 7, the last, Borland produced both a lower-priced Turbo Pascal and a more expensive Borland Pascal, the latter oriented toward professional software development with more libraries and standard library source code. The name Borland Pascal is also used more generally for Borland's dialect of Pascal, which is significantly different from Standard Pascal.
