   '"a pascal intro text for 16-18 year-olds somewhere in England"'

  you  might  try to find Henry Ledengards (spelling uncertain) ELEMENTARY
PASCAL.  this came through intro courses a few years ago, so i don't  know
its  current  availability.   as  i  recall, there was a constant theme of
sherlock holmes running through cover to cover.   an  encyphering  problem
was,  obviously, one of the assignments.  this kind of textbook device was
too silly for college level (ACM CS-1), but i thought it  might  have  use
for younger readers.
