tomekwHost your #Gemini capsule with #AdaLang on #RaspberryPi with twins 0.4.0 :)
marocddotTIL: True modular math in C/C++/Awk is not a thing (at least not with % operator):
In Python & Lua:
print((9-200) % 255)
gives me 64
In gforth:
9 200 - 255 MOD
gives me 64
Ada:
Put((9 - 200) mod 255); New_Line;
gives me 64
But.... In awk and C/C++:
printf("%d\n", (9-200) % 255);
gives me -191
Apparently, in C/Awk/C++ given. a % b, if a or b are negative, all bets are off.
I got my #RaspberrPi. What was the second thing, after configuring #PiHole, I did? I installed #AdaLang compiler and built Tada!
Happy hacking in Ada on #RaspberryPi!

@monospace I noticed it makes me super happy to just build the stuff I always wanted to do without concern for the outcome or the expectations of others.
Even if it means creating my own programming world in #AdaLang :)
vascorsdohh man this is fun as hell.
look here at the sizes of stuff being talked as "so big" an compare to anything that happens nowadays đ
@jaypatelani @david_chisnall this is not ready to be used in production. Just use the GCC from ports.
My #AdaLang build tool was built with GCC 15.2 on #OpenBSD :)
@david_chisnall @jaypatelani this is not true. FSF builds are GPL with linking exception. You can create commercial applications with #AdaLang. The compiler changes you made, would have to be covered by GPL.
Give Ada a shot :)

clacke: exhausted pixie dream boy đžđȘđđ°đđMany programming languages were originally written or are even still partially written in C. Rust was originally written in OCaml.
Are there any languages that were originally written in Ada?
