Jeff,

I recall a message of yours on comp.lang.ada, a couple of days ago, saying
approximately that :
- Ada needs 41 statements to implement a function point, while
- C needs 128 statements.

I'm right in the process of trying to guess a whole development effort, for a
project that may actually start in the next coming months. I'm pushing for an Ada
choice as far as the language is concerned. For this I need concrete arguments.

My question is : where do these figures come from ? And as a bonus : where could
I find related ratios on mean project cost related to either line of code or
function point ?

Difficult question I agree.
But thanks in advance for any clue.
