Interesting comments…When I mentioned 50,000 lines programs I didn't mean a
single module (that is of course ridiculous). Also, I'm not that familiar with
FUNCTION PROTOTYPING in C. What is it? Also what's the difference between
compile error or a warning, if your program will not run. The fact that some of
ideas that first appeared in C, are also present in Modula-2, just means that
Wirth is a smart guy. He saw something good and used it. I prefer Modula-2,
because I think it saves me a lot of work…and I still say that any compile
error is much easier to fix than a runtime error, even when you have great
debuggers……Richie
