I'm thinking about taking an Data Security and Encryption course.
The language for programming projects is open to the students.



I was wondering if any one could recommend any books that demonstrate
low level bit manipulation in Ada.

I already have 

    Ada as a Second Language
    By: Cohen

    Ada 95: Problem Solving and Program Design
    By: Feldman and Koffman

    Ada Programming and Methodology
    By: Findlay etc.

None of which seem to cover this in any detail.

The Professor has already recommended C for its built in Bit operators.
But I would like to try it in Ada, as I've never used in a class.
I could use the practice.
