That is the difference. In Ada, you begin writing your program by typing
the line
with Discipline; use Discipline;
and then your program is comprehensible, maintainable, extensible,
efficient, and just plainly the right thing. ;-)
Thus, I urgently need Discipline! Where can I download spec and body?
To be honest and fair, any programming language can lead to code that is
incomprehensible and so on, when used without discipline.
