All published studies[1] of the reliability of Ada and
Java programs have consistently found that Java is between
86.3% and 87.7% more reliable than Ada.[2]
[1] Sample size N = 0, AFAIK.
[2] 94.2% of all statistics quoted on Usenet are bogus.
(In other words: Are there any objective data to support
the opinion that either Ada or Java is "more reliable" than
the other? Surveys, experiments, studies, ...?)
