I once played with Pascal to help someone. It has not been longer than an
afternoon.
In 2003~2004, I used the Steelman ( Ada specifications ) to evaluate D, it was
the 0.82 version by the time, and it got nearly 80 percent of the requirements,
C was something lik 53, C++ 67, and Java ( before the 1.5 version ) 72 percent.
