Java vs. Pascal vs. Scala vs. ScraperAPI Comparison Chart

Pascal is a procedural and imperative programming language. Pascal is a simple and efficient programming language designed for developers that want to build applications in structured ways. Free Pascal is a mature, versatile, open source Pascal compiler. It can target many processor architectures: Intel x86 (16 and 32 bit), AMD64/x86-64, PowerPC, PowerPC64, SPARC, SPARC64, ARM, AArch64, MIPS, Motorola 68k, AVR, and the JVM. Supported operating systems include Windows (16/32/64 bit, CE, and native NT), Linux, Mac OS X/iOS/iPhoneSimulator/Darwin, FreeBSD and other BSD flavors, DOS (16 bit, or 32 bit DPMI), OS/2, AIX, Android, Haiku, Nintendo GBA/DS/Wii, AmigaOS, MorphOS, AROS, Atari TOS, and various embedded platforms. Additionally, support for RISC-V (32/64), Xtensa, and Z80 architectures, and for the LLVM compiler infrastructure is available in the development version. Additionally, the Free Pascal team maintains a transpiler for pascal to Javascript called pas2js.

ScraperAPI is a powerful web scraping API that enables users to collect data from any public website without worrying about proxies, browsers, or CAPTCHA challenges. It offers scalable and consistent data extraction solutions, including plug-and-play scraping, structured endpoints, and asynchronous request handling. The platform supports scraping popular sites like Amazon, Google, Walmart, and more, transforming raw web pages into clean, structured JSON or CSV data. Users can automate complex data pipelines without coding and benefit from global proxy coverage and geotargeting. ScraperAPI saves development time by managing proxy rotation, CAPTCHA solving, and browser rendering behind the scenes. Trusted by over 10,000 companies, it serves billions of requests monthly to help businesses gain competitive advantage through efficient data collection.
