Nov 19An Absolute Square
by in Representative Line on 2019-12-12Seth S offers us something new: a representative line of Ada. We don’t get much of that, and Ada isn’t a particularly popular language, but Seth assures us that it is “unfairly maligned”.
Since 1995, Ada has been an object oriented language, and offers a standard library, strong types, a message-passing approach to communicating with objects (which migrated into Objective-C but generally doesn’t show up very often elsewhere). It’s a fine, if less-used language, and I honestly can’t say I’ve heard much maligning it (though I’ve never actually heard of anyone using it either…).
