Re: howto make system calls (newbie question)

On my web site there is a bunch of statistics code that was built with an
eye towards getting it into the Ada Standard Library Working Group output.
We already define stuff in an appendix for the more common log and trig
functions after discovering that Fortran weenies were complaining about them
being missing. Why not look to other mathematical things that can be
implemented in a fairly recognizable way? Matrix and vector math libraries
exist all over - producing something that would look familiar to those users
might be a useful extension. Obviously I and a couple of extremely bright
math guys thought that statistics would make a good addition. There must be
other math functions that would be useful as well. Lots of numeric
programmers might learn to love Ada as a result.
