That might have been a tl;dr around 20 years ago. Now, C++ is very different having progressed along certain trajectories quite a ways. I would not characterize Ada as "An [XYZ]er C++" based on what you wrote.
- pyjarrett 4y agoThis comment wasn't meant to disparage C++, more to draw a comparison. As a C++ programmer, I find Ada very familiar in many ways, despite what would appear to be wild differences in surface syntax. A lot of things I do in C++, I can also do in Ada, though it's missing things like lambdas and move semantics.
