I certainly hope that the degeneration of this thread into a detailed discussion of how to compute SQRT has not discouraged you from using Ada :-) I hope you ultimately found a satisfactory answer. (Either the numerics appendix in A.5 for Ada95 or compiler specific - post the brand and platform & maybe we can help.) I sometimes wonder if questions like this aren't just tossed out to see how many people will run off on a tangent? :-) "Hey everybody! I'm looking for the best sorting algorithm available in Ada. Can somebody tell me what is the best algorithm?" :-)) MDC -- Marin David Condic Real Time & Embedded Systems, Propulsion Systems Analysis United Technologies, Pratt & Whitney, Large Military Engines M/S 731-95, P.O.B. 109600, West Palm Beach, FL, 33410-9600 ***To reply, remove "bogon" from the domain name.***
