"Today, Boeing uses about 500,000 lines of Ada to fly its commercial 747 400 in subsystem components, critical certification, and human safety features. Two of the three largest systems on the 747, or 43 percent of the executable bytes, are written in Ada. The software is FAA certified." (http://archive.adaic.com/docs/flyers/commapps.html) Is the third component in C++? That is scary, if it does anything important. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
