Is that why there was that "low level" radioactive material leak in a Canadian reactor? ;)
Seriously..don't you end up with two essentially different programs that test and execute differently?
Java has a disclaimer not to be used for controlling reactors or missiles..funny stuff

    You end up with two programs that are functionally equivalent. If their output diverge, there's a bug in at least one of them. Or in the program that compiles the Word document, as it happened a couple of times.

    This? It sounds so minor! It would probably be worth it for the excitement of getting something other than zero on the periodic urine tests used to detect alpha and beta doses. Badges detect gamma.

      I am sorry for OT, but that information changed my feeling of nuclear reactors:

      Coal typically contains small part of uranium. Though smoke of coal power plants is filtered, they produce much more radioactivity than nuclear ones, spreading it directly to the atmosphere.
