I agree with you that Ada is a very good first programming language. Here is
a paradox that has always puzzled me. A lot of peoples agree that:
- Ada is very good first programming language
- Ada is very good for high quality, safety critical, large scale softwares
Why is there so little Ada projects in the middle ?
Pascal.
