Object Pascal is an object oriented derivative of Pascal mostly known as the primary programming language of Borland Delphi. It is also known as the "Delphi programming language" when describing the dialect used by Borland Delphi.

Borland used the name "Object Pascal" for the programming language in the first versions of Borland Delphi, but later renamed it to the "Delphi programming language". However, compilers that claim to be Object Pascal compatible, such as Free Pascal, are often trying to be compatible with Turbo Pascal and Delphi source code.

Programming Language
This is a programming language. It may be used to instruct computers to accomplish a variety of tasks which may or may not be domain-specific.

Listed below are all of the tasks on Rosetta Code which have been solved using this programming language.
