That is a syntax problem, there are number of IDEs out there that would mark
what { the } belongs too. If you are using VC, there are macros to do this.
They are quite convient.
I find the operators clear, you just had to memorize a dozen or so, and that
is it.
I think it's just a matter of personal dislike for C's syntax. Personally, I
would love to work with C style Ada.
