- Oops. I misquoted the author of those sayings. The correct quote by Rex Page
- should be:
-
- "Fortran was a mistake of innocence and naivete. C was created by people who
- should have known better."
-
- My original post used the word "ignorance", which doesn't make sense given
- the context of the quote.
-
- Apologies.
