Comparing it with Ada, C/C++ and Java, the Seed7 programming language is more powerful and versatile.
Seed7 is able to translates programs to C programs which are then compiled in machine code.
With Seed 7, functions with type results and type parameters are more elegant than a template or generics concept.
