Most people seem to end up saying like BASIC, but I agree that it looks more like Pascal.

As to universal: *BUZZ* WRONG answer. You should have based on C/C++/Java/C#/javascript style syntax then, all of which are very similar syntactically. Pascal is pretty much dead.

50G AUR: probably has the long list of authors as I'd bet that it's derived from the PRINTED AUR that we got with our 48SXs(as I recall, got EVERY manual PRINTED AND a reference pamphlet as well) whic was probably then adapted for the 49G then the 49G+ and then the 50G which is why I always say that even my old 48 manuals(unfortunately the 48SX walked away... I miss it -> VAST disappointment in 49G (cruftily godawful build quality/kb was crap/sw was OK)) that I still have have some use even with 49/50 series.

The 49G was also the first HP calc that I purchased that came with the useless pamphlet of a manual, fortunately as alluded to above I still had my 48 manual set which mostly applied. Then the 50G and Prime were even worse with: WTF did you bother to include those useless marketing blurbs aka what passes for a printed intro guide. I REALLY miss printed manuals when they are (a) WELL written and (b) USEFUL which applies to alot of gadgets. Reading PDFs on a tablet just doesn't cut it for me, and being able to search is not much of a feature as any well written manual IMNHO includes a comprehensive index.

*AHEM* ... ao... anyways...
