What is a .TPU file?

A .TPU file is a special kind of computer file used by people who create programs in a programming language called Turbo Pascal. Turbo Pascal is a tool used to write and create software applications. The "TPU" in the file name stands for Turbo Pascal Unit. Think of a TPU file like a building block for computer programs. It's a piece of the program that has already been made and can be used over and over again in different programs. This is really helpful for programmers because it means they don't have to write the same code from scratch every time they want to do something that they've done before. Instead, they can just use the TPU file.

Inside a TPU file, there are functions and procedures. Functions and procedures are sets of instructions that tell the computer to do something specific, like calculating the sum of two numbers or displaying a message on the screen. By saving these instructions in a TPU file, a programmer can easily add them to a new Turbo Pascal program by using a special command called "uses." This is a bit like saying, "Hey, computer, use the instructions from this TPU file in our new program." To open and work with a TPU file, you would typically use a program called Borland Turbo Pascal. This program understands the special format of TPU files and knows how to incorporate their contents into new or existing Turbo Pascal programs. Borland Turbo Pascal is specifically designed for this purpose, making it the go-to tool for anyone working with TPU files.
