We bid farewell to the computer pioneer Niklaus E. Wirth, who passed away on January 1, 2024. He received the 1984 ACM A.M. Turing Award "for developing a sequence of innovative computer languages, EULER, ALGOL-W, MODULA and PASCAL. PASCAL has become pedagogically significant and has provided a foundation for future computer language, systems, and architectural research." We offer our sincere condolences to his family and friends.
