Lex and Yacc generate wonderful C code as well -- But the implementation
has to be judged by where it is maintained.

Classic Ada and InnovAda, by that measure, ARE languages in their own
right, and ARE supersets of Ada (legal Ada is legal Classic Ada).

On the other hand, C originally did not include its current
preprocessor, so the language definition changed to include it.

Whatever Language you use, it should be fun and useful.
