I have a function that I am trying to convert for use on my PC using
adagide :

  function "and" (l,r : in system.unsigned_word)
	return system.unsigned_word
	renames system."and";

I do not have access to the system package that this code is trying to
call, but I have looked at the adagide system package and cannot find
the definition of unsigned_word. I understand I am overloading the
reserved word "and" but I am not clear as to the results. If I say tmp:=
a_unsigned_word and another_unsigned_word will I get a composite of
these two words or is this a boolean?I am new to Ada so forgive me if do
not seem very knowlegable but I'm trying.
