#R:denelcor:-14400:tekcae:4800001:000:449 tekcae!archiel Sep 21 11:03:00 1983 The reference by the writer of the article under discussion to C as a high-level assembler (whatever that is) for the PDP-11 is an indication of his ignorance. I fail to see how the C language (not to be confused with what a compiler does with it) is intimately tied to the PDP-11. Anyway, the idea of ADA "taking over" makes me nauseous. Hopefully, since the DOD accounts for a small percentage of our business, we won't have ADA forced upon us.
