Yes, it is surprising that some folks think Java was the first
strongly typed procedural language to require garbage collection
when M3 had appeared nearly ten years before
....
Almost as surprising as the fact that some folks thinking M3
was the first strongly typed procedural language to require
garbage collection when Algol-68 had appeared nearly 20 years
earlier :-)
And it is certainly fair to compare Algol-68 with Modula-3.
Actually A68 was really significantly more successful than
Modula-3. Two major manufacturers had fully supported Algol-68
compilers, and Algol-68 was very widely taught in England at
one stage (in the 1970 British Journal of Computing survey, it
was most mentioned as the ideal teaching language by British
respondents -- reflecting the availability of the excellent
ICL compiler).
