  One of my first substantial uses of Ada was to create a program that had
to be delivered in C.  It was much easier to write, correctly, in Ada and
the manual transliteration to C wasn't that painful.  Of course I was a
faster C typist then, and the source was Ada 83 with no tasks.  It was not
a full, conforming, Ada 2005 to C++ compiler and run time.  I was happy
and the customer was happy.
