Definitely! I'm using untyped languages (like Awk) for scripting, though, but not for code of considerable scale. Incidentally, on of my children recently spoke about their setups; they use Fortran with old libraries (hydrodynamic earth processes), have the higher level tasks implemented in C++, and they do the "job control" of the simulation tasks with Python. - A multi-tier architecture. - That sounds not unreasonable to me. (But they had built their system based on existing software, so it might have been a different decision if they'd have built it from scratch.) > > C++ is undeniably powerful, but I think the majority would agree now that > its syntax has become an unwieldy mess. Yes. And recent standards made it yet worse - When I saw it the first time I couldn't believe that this would be possible. ;-) Janis
