But Ada looks pretty cool. >is impossibly hard, obsolete and "worse", XOR it's a troll. Given the >pre-pubescent "X sucks Y rules" header, you're right in either case. Truth is, I've learned all major languages (and some not major) like: Super Easy, Basic, Pascal, C, C++, Cobol, and Assembly (for x86). I've found C and C++ to be very hard to be productive in, and Pascal to be the easiest to be productive in. Truthfully, I liked ASM better then C++, but I didn't get into advanced things in either. I'm definitly interested in adding Ada to my list though, so if you could, can you e-mail me a place to download an Ada compiler for x86's? (preferably Dos or Win95 because Linux was deleted for lack of space). Thank you, my e-mail is grivell@erols.com
