Professor John H. Carson was quoted in Computer Design june -85.
He speaks about strong typing in different languages and says:
- C is a language for consenting adults
- Pascal is a language for children when you don't want
them to be naughty
- Ada is a language for criminals
Well, I would say it another way:
- Ada is a language for software engineers
