Hoos 0 siblings, 1 reply; 5+ messages in thread From: John English @ 2002-02-21 14:00 UTC (permalink / raw) Following a recent thread in this group, I've now updated my online Ada textbook "Ada 95: the Craft of Object-Oriented Programming". The reason is given in the change log at the bottom of the contents page (http://www.it.bton.ac.uk/staff/je/adacraft/): Revision 1.3 2002/02/21 13:00:00 JE Minor corrections to chapters 2, 3, 13, 17 and 18, and to the examples for chapters 3, 13, 18 and 19: the British usage of "full stop" instead of "period" has confused some American readers, so "semicolon" has been substituted throughout to keep things language-independent. Two countries separted by a common language... :-) ----------------------------------------------------------------- John English | mailto:je@brighton.ac.uk Senior Lecturer | http://www.it.bton.ac.uk/staff/je Dept. of Computing | ** NON-PROFIT CD FOR CS STUDENTS ** University of Brighton | -- see http://burks.bton.ac.uk ----------------------------------------------------------------- ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
