Re: Help on Package_Name

[David Botton <david@botton.com>]

I recommend to help you get started to take a look at http://www.adapower.com

You will find the Ada FAQ there, free Ada books, and the Source Code 
Treasury with examples of how to do various tasks in Ada.

The student_io package is a package provided by the author of the book 
you are using. See if it came with a CD.
