pascal

SI unit of pressure, equal to one newton per square metre. It replaces bars and millibars (105 Pa equals one bar). It is named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal.

Pascal

High-level computer-programming language. Designed by Niklaus Wirth in the 1960s as an aid to teaching programming, it is still widely used as such in universities, and as a good general-purpose programming language. Most professional programmers, however, now use C or C++. Pascal was named after the 17th-century French mathematician Blaise Pascal.
