I am sure others will point out that this is also incorrect. As I
have suggested in the past, I strongly advise that if people post
Ada code, they compile it and make sure it works, and then cut
and paste actual working code. This will help avoid spreading
misinformation. This is good advice for anyone, no matter how
well you think you know Ada. I certainly do it for any code I
post, it is too easy to make a silly typo, and end up confusing
people if you do not take the trouble to make sure that code you
post is correct.
