I was really asking a simple question :)

In Ada, how can one work with sparse matrices? Say I want to make Ax=b,
where A is sparse, and solve for x.

How would you do that in Ada 2005? What libraries/bindings etc... does
one need to use.

Using Sparse matrices is so common in matlab world, since it is build-in,
and I was just giving an example, that is all.
