Perhaps more importantly, you need to know the strengths 
and weaknesses of the available languages, so that you're 
able to use the mixed-language capability inherent in ILE 
to advantage.

What's the use of having an environment designed for 
mixed-language *PGMs if you're only using one language, or 
if you're not using the best available language for any 
particular part of the problem you're attempting to solve?
