> BTW, do you know what language Ada is written in? I'd guess C and asm.
If you do some research you can find an incredible web site discussing the
Ada competition in some depth. And here on this very list we have some of
the people who participated in that competition who can surely answer your
question.
I can tell you this for certain: the IBM implementation was not written in
C, at least not on an IBM machine. IBM didn't have a viable C compiler
until much later. Furthermore, assembler is the language of choice on IBM
platforms. It may have been written elsewhere and cross-compiled though.
I'll be interested to see answers to your question, thanks for asking it!
