Has anyone seen this web page:
<http://www.cs.ncl.ac.uk/publications/books/apprentice/InstructorsManual/C++
_Choice.html>
Two professors from England explain why they teach C++ as a first-year
language, instead of teaching Ada or Eiffel or Modula-2 etc. Since their
charts list Ada as lacking support for object-oriented programming, perhaps
they don't realize there's a new Ada standard (not to mention free
compilers) that does.
Pedagogues: any comments about the paper?
