Doug Cooper rewrote his popular Oh! Pascal! book, changing lots of technical
details (to correspond to Modula-2) and changing lots of philosophical and
pedagogical material too.  It is NOT a mere translation of Oh! Pascal!

Although I don't know the details, there is a very cheap way to get the
Stony Brook QuickMod compiler with this book. It also comes with a diskette
containing all sorts of interesting data files for use in programs.

Ohio State has adopted this text for its introductory programming course.
