I've been learning Ada as a hobby and I really like the language. Type system is powerful and flexible, compiler is really user friendly, OOP implementation is refreshingly DIY, support for concurrency via Tasks, C binding not too difficult.
Still learning, and there's not much out there in terms of libraries to interface with other tech, but its been enjoyable.
- jetti 9y agoAre you using GNAT? What kind of programs are you writing to learn? Why Ada?
- fuball63 9y agoYes, I'm using GNAT. Right now I'm working on a text based adventure game with procedural generated content. I was initially interested in the language because of how it allows for nested functions, so I bought a book and started working through it, and like a lot of the other features it offers.
