Abstract
In Chapter 1 the Pascal data types were classified into three groups: simple, pointer and structured data types. A structured data type is one whose values are each made up of simpler component values. So far the simple data types and the structured data type array have been considered. In this chapter the pointer data type and the various Pascal structured data types are examined. These topics are not covered in great detail; only the parts relevant to first year electronic engineering students are emphasised. Many concepts introduced in this chapter are used in Chapter 7.
