This International Standard specifies the semantics and syntax of the computer programming language Extended Pascal by specifying requirements for a processor and for a conforming program. Two levels of compliance are defined for both processors and programs.

1.2

This International Standard does not specify

(a) the size or complexity of a program and its data that will exceed the capacity of any specific data processing system or the capacity of a particular processor, nor the actions to be taken when the corresponding limits are exceeded;

(b) the minimal requirements of a data processing system that is capable of supporting an implementation of a processor for Extended Pascal;

(c) the method of activating the program-block or the set of commands used to control the environment in which an Extended Pascal pro gram is transformed and executed;

(d) the mechanism by which programs written in Extended Pascal are transformed for use by a data processing system;

(e) the method for reporting errors or warnings;

(f) the typographical representation of a program published for human reading.
