Stephen F. Zeigler reported in 1995 on an empirical study, done within
Rational Software Corporation, of a large set of C and Ada modules being
developed and maintained by the same team, with the same people working
on both C and Ada modules.
The rate of defects/KSLOC was 0.676 for the C modules, and 0.096 for the
Ada modules - about 7 times more defects per line in C than in Ada.
The study makes many other interesting comparisons:
