What i need is recomendations >of good books, a general plan for the cource (1 semester) and any other material For a book reference for a first course, I've found Jan Skansholm's "Ada From the Beginning (2nd Ed)" to be very useful. It also covers Ada95 throughout it. I'm certain it would be suitable as a CS1 class. I also believe Jan is from over there (Sweden?), making it _slightly_ easier to reach the author :-) -- Frustrated with C, C++, Pascal, Fortran? Ada95 _might_ be for you! For all sorts of interesting Ada95 tidbits, run the command: "finger dweller@starbase.neosoft.com | more" (or e-mail with "finger" as subj.)
