Actually, I am trying to find out the same thing I know that ADA is
used by many Engineers, for building planes and trains, therefore
someone probably has already researched of this. It makes sense that
the answer is readily available I just didn't want to hunt for it when
it is common knowledge in certain places.

The problem with C++ is that so many of the mathematical and
statistical functions are in what is called the standard template
library that to get any speed out of C++ you have to write your
programs in unorthodox ways, so I have heard.

I am still data mining, but so far I would probably choose Mathematica
or Maple  for their mathematical and Statistical libraries because
after much research they seem to have most of what I want for a fairly
reasonable price. Because Pure Mathematics is in less demand in
industry than applied Mathematics; I figuired I would get an Ada
package that links with Fortran and C++. Ada sounds like a reasonable
RAD, rapid application development, language.
