Suppose someone wanted to invent a new language. (I have no intention of inventing a new language. This is just my way of making a comparison.) What is the ONE capability of Ada you would most want to ensure is in the new language? and/or What is the ONE capability of Eiffel you would most want to ensure is in the new language? and/or BRIEFLY, why? Please use direct e-mail, however, messages that are too long will be bounced by the spam-bot (sorry). Also, messages will be auto-sorted, so please do not change the subject line when replying. ("Re:" or "Fwd" or add-ons like that are OK but keep the main phrase.) I have no intention of inventing a new language. This is just my way of making a comparison.
