I have posted this before, but it might be useful to repeat it.
One of the most important contributions of C++ will eventually be a
greater appreciation for Ada, especially Ada 95. So far, in our Ada
95 training, those students with a good background in C++ are the
most amenable to Ada.
On the other hand, in A C++ class for one of our Ada clients, those
students with a good Ada background seemed to do best in learning C++.
