Pascal needs to become industry standard again, it would fix many of the current problems.
* Real Programmers aren't afraid to use GOTOs.
* Real Programmers can write five page long DO loops without getting confused.
* Real Programmers like Arithmetic IF statements-- they make the code more interesting.
* Real Programmers write self-modifying code, especially if they can save 20 nanoseconds in the middle of a tight loop.
* Real Programmers don't need comments-- the code is obvious.
* Since Fortran doesn't have a structured IF, REPEAT ... UNTIL, or CASE statement, Real Programmers don't have to worry about not using them. Besides, they can be simulated when necessary using assigned GOTOs.
