No doubt lots of people will point you to the specific section
in the RM, but more to the point is that you *really* need to
find out what is available standardly in Ada as part of learning
the language. Otherwise you will waste time reinventing the
wheel. You should also learn what special functions are provided
by your implementor (e.g. if you use GNAT, find out what is in
the GNAT.xxx hierarchy, and read the GNAT manuals).
