Easy is a relative term.  Turbo Pascal is probably the easiest of the
compiled languages to learn, but like learning any language you do need to
persist at the start until the moment comes when you stop having to refer
to the dictionary (Programmers Guide/Library Reference) for every move you
make.

So if you are really interested in programming, keep at it.  If you give up
at Turbo Pascal, you would probably give up at any other language, and the
reason would probably be because you lack persistence rather than
intelligence.

Peter
