Message-ID: <3d5rdo$u46@coyote.csusm.edu> (raw)
2 questions:
1. Is there an Ada for NextStep that uses the OO features of the OS?
2. I just started learning Ada, and despite my initial reaction to the
complexity, I'm finding it to be a 'good' language ('good' is defined
here as 'I like it!'). However, it still is fairly complex, and I need
some sort of learning resource that I can also use as a reference.
Can some of you send me your recomendations? I'm very good at picking
up new paradigms of programming; C++ took a couple of minutes and Forth
took only a few months. I currently know (in order of enjoyment) Forth,
Intel Assembler (sorry, not for the Pentium), Pascal, Icon, Objective C,
C++, C, and Basic. If it helps, I also know Fortran '77, but I hate it.
I'm willing to print something up if I need to.
Thanks in advance!

My bookstore doesn't have any Ada books (and only about 5 C++ books),
while my school library is even worse.
Sorry for giving this like an essay assignment; I just got out of a
difficult semester.
I'm going to be gone for a good part of December, but I should be able to
pick up 'most any posts on this newsgroup when I come back-- nonetheless,
email is easier to keep up with.
