> A rough estimate from Erlang, is that the typical Erlang program is 1/5th of the typical C++ program implementing the same functionality.

And taking that to the extreme, J/K/APL is usually 1/100th of the typical C++/Java program implementing the same functionality. Unlike erlang, it's not more robust - but it's often faster (not because of some theoretical advantage - when you write 1/100th of the code with the right primitive, you have more time to think about optimizing it)

But as another poster said: Shh, don't tell anyone about our unfair advantage.
