But to summarize, it's saying that X is a type, it's an "OO" type
(tagged), it's abstract (you can't make objects of this type), it's
limited (you can't assign it), and it's a null record (meaning the
instances have no data because of this type).  The fact that it's
private means other stuff, too. Pretty complicated, eh? :-)

But I second the suggestion that you get Ada As A Second Language.
