There are ways of doing both.
If you're programming in Ada you rarely (if ever) need to use them. The
only cases I have used them is in interfacing with other languages.
Your question is indicative of a C way of thinking.
Tell us a little more about what you're trying to do, and perhaps we can
suggest an approach using an Ada way of thinking.
