FYI, Ada, a woman's name, is correctly capitalized as in your subject line. Not addressed by others is the version of Ada you'd like to learn/evaluate. The most recent version, ISO/IEC 8652:2012, is only supported by one compiler, GNAT. Free versions of GNAT are available. GNAT also supports earlier versions of Ada. If you want a language supported by multiple compilers you'll need to use an earlier version of Ada. The next most recent version, ISO/IEC 8652:2007, is supported by multiple vendors, but GNAT is the only free compiler that supports it. The version of Ada before ISO/IEC 8652:2007 is ISO/IEC 8652:1995 (Ada 95), which is supported by multiple vendors. There is a free version of ObjectAda for Ada 95 that can be found on line. It has limitations as to the size of programs that it can compile, but they should not be an issue for your purposes. RR Software provides a low-cost compiler and may provide a free evaluation compiler for Ada 95. -- Jeff Carter "Have you gone berserk? Can't you see that that man is a ni?"
