Comment on Project Oberon - The Design of an Operating System, a Compiler, and a Computerparent

Comments

I learned Modula-2 in my university (UMA, Spain) around 2000. they changed to C++ a year later. Even now days all the pseudocode used by many courses is strong inspired in Modula-2.

My Intro to Operating Systems class was in Modula-2 circa 1988. I really liked it. I was lucky enough to subsequently spend quality time with Modula-2 on the 8051 and Modula-3 on Ultrix (which was a really nice evolution of the language). Shame that line of innovation has withered.
