Message-ID: <5r37k9$h4p$1@kelp.mbay.net> (raw)
I have a computational algorithm that I've implemented that has
the (admitedly unusual) property that it is perfectly valid for either
arrays of Integers or arrays of Floats. As far as I can see I
CANNOT make a generic version of the package that will work for
both, e.g.:
Generic
Type Element is <something meaning INTEGER or FLOAT subtypes>
Type DataArray is Array(Natural Range<>) of Element;
.....
Is there a way to do this ? or do I have to actually make two different copies
(which differ only in the definition of ELEMENT).
