> type Angle_Type is delta 0.0005 range -3.1416 .. 3.1416;

The first thing I see here is that 0.0005 doesn't evenly divide
2*3.1416; is that going to be a problem? {I haven't used fixed-point
types yet; but that looks like something you'd generally want: an even
division of (Type'Last-Type'First) into 'delta'.}

So, will changing the delta to 0.0002, 0.0001, OR 0.00005 be doable/
convenient/preferable-if-possible?
