   Ada is designed so the compiler can help catch errors, but if you
would rather hide the nature of the parameter to function_0 from the
compiler, and use a debugger to find the resulting errors yourself, try:
     procedure test1(x : in Integer) is
     begin
       Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ( "Test1" & Integer'image(x));
     end test1;

     test2 : float;

and
     Result := function_0 ( test1'address, 0.5 ) ;
     Result := function_0 ( test2'address, 0.5 ) ;
