This predates that. It's written in Ada.

Does it count if, combining the two, one could infer a musical scale[0] such as:

  Ada (ay-dah), Scala (ska-lah)
Bonus points for Latin aficionados:
  The word "scale" originates from the Latin scala,
  which literally means "ladder".

Every Good Boy…

Crazy how these two disciplines are so intertwined.

EDIT:

Seriously, though, what both music and fundamentally sound programming languages have in common is math. Elegantly defined versions of both are beautiful expressions of thought.
