About this book

The Delphi Quick Syntax Reference is a succinct code and syntax reference guide to Delphi. It presents the fundamental knowledge to get newcomers started with the language and provides a refresher to seasoned or returning Delphi developers.


It covers all the new features added by Embarcadero during the last few years. Delphi celebrates 25 years in 2020 and, alongside the free community version that was introduced a couple of years ago, this syntax guide is a great way to get into the language.


What You Will Learn
  • Quickly use and learn Delphi
  • Compile, build and run a Delphi program
  • Master Delphi strings, variables, constants, and operators and how to apply them
  • Use conditions, loops, procedures, and functions in Delphi 
  • Apply object-oriented programming in Delphi 

Who This Book Is For


Returning or current Delphi developers: The book is a resource for reference for this group of developers especially for the new features that were introduced in the language over the last couple of years. Newcomers to the language: These developers will learn the fundamentals of the language in a very condensed and effective text that accelerates learning.

About the author

John Kouraklis started exploring computers when he was 16 and since then has followed all the way from Turbo Pascal to Delphi and Delphi Tokyo  as a hobby initially and as a profession for most of his adult life. He has developed a wide range of applications, from financial software to reverse engineering tools, including an application for professional gamblers.


He is part of the Delphi community and participates in online communities, forums, and many other events. For example, he is active on Delphi Praxis, which is perhaps the biggest English-speaking online forum about Delphi. John also has a personal website where he posts articles regularly. Lastly, he has written two books about Delphi published by Apress.
