  A simple Ada program looks a lot like Pascal.  Do you know Pascal?
with Ada.Text_IO;
procedure Hi is
begin Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("Hello World");end Hi;
  Unless of course you are running as flight control software for an
airliner and have no console to write on.  Perhaps you could then make
the plane act like a skywriter, but there's not enough room in this
short e-mail for that sample program. ;)
