Gives me the impression that it is. "Furthermore, government studies :) indicate that it's more cost-effective than C++, Pascal, or Fortran" Doesn't tell me if the author thinks it's more cost-effective. Gives me the impression that "the studies" shouldn't be trusted because they were done by the promoters of the technology. (Gosh aren't there studies not done by "the government" that show the same thing) What's great about this recycled gossip? > > http://microsoft.toddverbeek.com/lang.html > Great page, but there is only one problem: the Ada link takes you to the > badly out of date adahome! ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
