I think I'd go further and suggest that a higher level language than Ada
might be more suitable to your purpose (depending on what you are really
trying to do). Are you familiar with Prolog or Lisp? There are many
different robotics-specific languages, also. You may even find that using a
programming language of any kind is not what you require (perhaps an
adaptive learning system implemented at hardware level would work better).
What are you trying to achieve, ultimately?
Nick.
