The way it evolves, the way in maintains its own bug for so long and the=

way its a mess with all the Pascal variant it supports via compiler  =

options and the amount by which the meaning of a source may vary just  =

depending on compiler option, I really believe the opposite: will be saf=

and easier with Ada. At least, if he made an error in the translation fr=

Pascal to Ada, the Ada compiler will probably tell him at compile time.
