You could use PragmArc.Set_Discrete from the PragmAda Reusable Components
http://home.earthlink.net/~jrcarter010/pragmarc.htm
In which case your example would be written as
if Member (I, Make ((1, 5, 13, 21)) then
However, that's a poor use of sets. If you're not defining sets and
checking for membership in a set variable you probably want a case
statement.
