Thank you very much for all your answers !
They are all very detailed and I feel that I have a better grasp of
how to program with Ada now. But something still puzzles me...
I'm ok when Adam B. says:
> asking "How do I write this C code in Ada" is the WRONG approach.
But, let me develop...
In C, it's rather easy to know how to do something because 1/ the
langage is so simple and 2/ there are some many helpful resources
(K&R, glibc source code or whatever else, man pages, Stevens's
books...). I talk here about C but it's rather the same with Python,
Perl, C++ or Java.
In Ada, I found nothing similar and even finding howto do a kind of
'printf("%x"...)'... hum, sorry... displaying an Integer in hexa, is
difficult. The ARM is a load of 800 pages with no example (it's a
reference manual. how would learn C by reading ISO/CEI 9899:1999 ?).
J.Barnes book might be great but... waiting 571 pages to learn how to
display "hello, world" on a screen is a bit discouraging.
Don't get me wrong, I'm convinced Ada is great. But what is the proper
way to learn Ada ?
