Advanced Journey With Ada: A Flight In Progress
Warning
This is work in progress!
Information in this document is subject to change at any time without prior notification.
Note
The code examples in this course use a 50-column limit, which
greatly improves the readability of the code on devices with a small
screen size. This constraint, however, leads to an unusual coding
style. For instance, instead of calling Put_Line
in a single
line, we have this:
Put_Line
(" is in the northeast quadrant");
or this:
Put_Line (" (X => "
& Integer'Image (P.X)
& ")");
Note that typical Ada code uses a limit of at least 79 columns. Therefore, please don't take the coding style from this course as a reference!
This course will teach you advanced topics of the Ada programming language. The Introduction to Ada course is a prerequisite for this course.
