Re: PICs rule
True, but with the caveat that, given the appropriate class definition, any OO language can.
“Smalltalk“
accountBalance := AccountBalance new.
//Java:
AccountBalance accountBalance = new AccountBalance();
And, having written that, I suddenly remember why, as a Smalltalk devotee, I find it easier to understand why one could be a COBOL aficionado than Java zealot ;-)
