I was a co-author of an algorithm written in Pascal (ISO 7185) which read:
PROGRAM stvpas(datafile, output);
{This program counts the votes in a Single Transferable Vote election, using Meek's method, and reports the results}
...
The datafile was reread on every iteration of the algorithm.
Am I correct in stating that that the program cannot be run with gpc without making a change to the program to assign datafile to an external file?
