Does anyone know of a good book that can help me learn how to search and/or
sort an array in Ada?

For Algorithms, try Donald E. Knuth: Sorting and Searching, Addison
Wesley, (first edition 1973).
Its a classic, but still emminently useful. Dont know any better.

I am taking a class where we are using "Ada95: Problem Solving and Program
Design" by Feldman and Koffman. It has a chapter on arrays and some
treatment of simple sorting methods, though nothing like you would find in
an algorithms book.

Chapter 14 of "Software Construction and Data Structures with Ada95" by
Feldman.

Actually, my data structures text would be better for this purpose.
It does have a good bit of material on sorting and searching.
