Spend longer whenever you need.</p><p>A decision chooses which statements run. The policy here is “ready at 80 or higher.” Trace 85, 79, 80, and 81 before running each case. The comparison includes 80. A program that prints the right answer for 85 may still be wrong at the boundary. Add a separate check rejecting scores below 0 or above 100; rejection and needing practice mean different things.</p><p>Object Pascal classes and Objective-Pascal are distinct. First learn <code>class</code>, construction, and <code>Free</code> using the Linux lab. Objective-Pascal adds Objective-C interoperability through mode switches; this lab does not provide that Apple runtime.</p><pre><code class="language-objectpascal">program AgilaStudy;
