You could write it in assembler and it would work and be fast. There are reasons 
not to use assembler, and there are reasons not to use access types. There are 
probably no applications that you, the OP, or I are likely to work on where 
access types and their associated errors are needed or the best choice. 
Certainly there should never be visible access types in a pkg spec.
