RE: R.I.P. Niklaus Wirth
I was never a professional programmer, but I learned several programming languages in the course of my self-education. Those were the days of the marketing battle between C and Pascal. Computer people were often asked which side they were on. I would always say that I preferred Pascal, because “I like my variables to be what they are, rather than where they are.” ;-)

RIP, Dr. Wirth, and thank you for your contributions.
