I am looking over Simula language to see how it compares to C++/Smalltalk, and I have two questions that are difficult to find answers to because each time I type in Simula into Google, it gets replaced by “C”, “Python”, or “Simulation”.
-
Was Simula case sensitive?
-
What file extension was used for Simula programs?
1
Simula is case-insensitive.
=> Wikipedia
After taking a look at the sample content in Simula from this piece of documentation (download the ZIP folder to view content), the files are saved with either the .sim
or the .pas
extensions.
