That's because the language doesn't specify that. In theory you can name your
source code files anything you want. In practice every Ada compilation system
has a preferred naming system. Checking your compiler documentation would be a
good idea.
Your suggested ".ads" and ".adb" are quite likly to be a good choice. Both
gnat and the popular Intermetrics front end used by several other compilers
prefer source files that way.
