I have taught myself sufficient Ada to = do this a long time ago and I then used at that time a dedicated Ada Gide e= ditor that came with the book =E2=80=9CAda 95 - Problem solving and Progra= m design by Feldman/Koffman. This editor was very user friendly. I now want to rewrite the same cipher source code of my earlier implementat= ion in a more recent version of Ada and to this end I have bought the book = by John Barnes =E2=80=9CProgramming Ada 2012=E2=80=9D. I have also download= ed the editor/compiler =E2=80=9CGnat Programming Studio=E2=80=9D so as to i= mplement the new source code that I suspect will be needed. I am finding the GPS a bit off-putting however in that the tutorial albeit = highly articulate is also very fragmented and requires a lot of cross refer= encing (There is another newbie person with me also that I want to teach wh= ile learning to use GPS myself and the tutorial isn't helping). Ideally, what I need is a book by some (any) author who uses GPS to demonst= rate his worked examples in his/her book. This can be any version of Ada = =E2=80=93 it=E2=80=99s the coding in GPS that I want to see in particular. Can any person put me onto such a book (must use GPS if at all possible). A= ny other advice would be appreciated also - I need to learn to navigate aro= und GPS - I don't like hacking through the tutorial however - Is there anot= her way?. Note: In passing, I have found that the Ada language is by far the better p= rogramming language in this hugely important industry. adacrypt .
