Harold; I don't really doubt that ADA has its use. Since its development is recent it probably takes better advantage of hardware capability than some other languages. I would imagine that the optimizer in the compiler is quite advanced. Even fortran and cobol still have their place (besides a museum), though I certainly would not want to write anything else in either one. -bill – via Whap!
