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.
