} On the other hand, you could *read* COBOL. You didn't have monstrosities
} like...
}
} a=c.split('&'); for(i=0;i<a.length;i++) { a[i]=a[i].split(':');
} this[a[i][0]]=unescape(a[i][1]); }
}
} Not too terribly complex if you know C++, but you get the idea. ;)
Corollary:
You can write FORTRAN code in any programming language.
