Nick says
<<Ordering code bottom up a la Ada vs ordering code in any order. Does
having the ability to freely order increase the readability of the code?
Well I do like grouping features with a class in clusters, and
(hopefully) being consistent between clusters. You can always order
bottom up if you want to, but you don't have to. In other words having
free ordering is a superset of bottom up ordering.>>
Reading some of these posts makes me wonder whether the posters have
actually written code in Ada. Because I cannot make any sense out of
their description of the restrictions in Ada ordering.
Nick, perhaps you could give a small example of Ada code where Ada
forces you to write things in inconvenient order, and then we can
better understand what you are talking about.
