Famous quote by Larry Wall:

  Plus I remember being impressed with Ada because you could write an
  infinite loop without a faked up condition. The idea being that in
  Ada the typical infinite loop would be normally be terminated by
  detonation.    -- Larry Wall in <199911192212.OAA23621@kiev.wall.org>

It seems to me that microwave ovens these days would usually be
programmed in C rather than BASIC, but Ada is perfectly well suited for
almost anything C is suitable for.  For that matter, the Arduino was
built around AVR microcontrollers with 1k or 2k of ram, and the
"official" programming language for the Arduino environment was/is C++,
which is even more complex than Ada.
