Message-ID: <246hpd$1r3@schonberg.cs.nyu.edu> (raw)

Regarding the note on the difference in the Booch components between the
Ada and C++ versions.

First, part of the imnprovement simply comes from the recoding.

Second, as Ed Schonberg has described in more details, the work we did
as the IAT here at NYU showed that the C++ versions could be recoded in
Ada 9X in a straightforward manner leading to a version that was about the
same length, but, in our opinion was much more readable [we are not great
fans of the C++ syntax -- probably one of the languages poorer features]
