    ABSTRACT:: "PASCAL" is a general purpose programming language with
               characteristics similar to ALGOL 60, but with an enriched set
               of program- and data structuring facilities. It has been
               implemented on the CDC 6000 computer. This paper discusses
               selected topics of code generation, in particular the
               selection of instruction sequences to represent simple
               operations on arithmetic, Boolean, and powerset operands.
               Methods to implement recursive procedures are briefly
               described, and it is hinted that the more sophisticated
               solutions are not necessarily also the best. The CDC 6000
               architecture appears as a frequent source of pitfalls and
               nuisances, and its main trouble spots are scrutinized and
               discussed.
