Pascal rules!Next thing you know, we'll be talking about how wonderful FORTH is. (Recently started running an PDP11 simulator with RSX11M+ as the OS. FORTH is one of the few programming languages availble, along with APL, COBOL, FORTRAN, Pascal, DIBOL, DEC C, LISP, and MACRO11.)
Metric- how can you relate to that? Who knows what a CM is? If someone says they are 162cm tall, how would you know if they were tall or short? I can maybe do the math in my head to get to a relatable number but if a person can't do the math then they can't relate.
