Comment on What are Fortran and Cobol used for today?parent

Comments

Compared to Cobol and Fortran, Pascal always was a blip on the radar. Some success as a teaching tool (UCSD etc.), then DOS (Turbo) and Windows (Delphi) programming. Small niches, not that much of legacy code (especially if you can keep the database and just e.g. exchange the Delphi frontend with an ASP.NET one).
