>test1.adb:8:06: warning: "I" is never assigned a value

Line 8 of the program is
   n,I : Integer;
and in column 6 we see the variable I defined.  It is never used
in the rest of the program.

  Probably you are confused because some programming languages
would require this declaration of I and would use that I in the loop
       for I in 1 .. 10_000_000 loop
whereas in Ada the loop variable is a brand new one, automatically
created, in this case with the name I.  eg,

       for I in 1 .. 10_000_000 loop
         ...
       end loop;

acts like:

   declare
       I : Integer;
   begin
       for I in 1 .. 10_000_000 loop
         ...
       end loop;
   end;

So you can drop the declaration of "I" on line 8.
