About this comparison to Java : JML (Java Modeling Language) which is th=

corresponding DbC (Design By Contract) language for Java, is not aimed a=
t  =

static analysis, it creates conditions which are checked at runtime only=
  =

(as far as I've understood). So there is no way to compare JML and SPARK=
.

Please, can you tell me more about what =E2=80=9Cannotations=E2=80=9D im=
plies to you ?

To give a small talk, I would just say that if it either appears in  =

comment or in plain language source, I do not see a difference.

There is even better than a pragma Assert: a SPARK --# check.
