We had a project in our "Programming Languages" class that consisted of solving a problem in a number of different languages, including Ada, which proved to be the most difficult simply because of the lack of decent resources or guides online. I'm not saying I couldn't get accustomed to it, but with just about any other language you can go online and find a few guides that'll get you acquainted with the paradigm of a language, and I couldn't find anything like that for Ada. Programming in Prolog was easier because at least then I could go to our library and dust off a book from the late '80s about how to write programs in Prolog.
