Can somebody tell me how virtual procedures actually work in Simula-67? I am
nearly sure that in Simula, as in C++, they are implemented by pointers to
functions associated with each class. Thus, there is no need for a lookup
function at runtime.

Am I wrong?

Thanks in advance for any answer (IT IS URGENT !!!),
