Please educate yourself and learn about why Ariane 5 crashed on it's
first flight, due to an error in a module written in ADA (which is such
a psychorigid language that C++ and Java are even looser than Javascript
in comparison). Perhaps will it light a bulb for you.
The claim here regarding the Ariane 5 failure is one of those urban
myths that refuses to die.
You failed the test. Sorry.
It has been refuted over and over
What has been refuted exactly ?
(including on this thread already), but I would just like to add
something in defense of Ada.
Studies have found that Ada reduces both bugs and long-term
development costs by something like a factor of two compared to C.
This _might_ (or not - there are too many variables to get any
scientific certitudes here) be true. But that was not the point. See my
other posts here for more about it.
