Half false alarm, half True alarm: there is not way to have an empty arr= ay = in SPARK. But I don't really enjoy the lack of a test for the empty arra= y = case, as a SPARK program is always a valid Ada program, and may be = compiled ignoring any SPARK error as well. This is perfectly possible to= = compile this passing Search an empty array. I would prefer SPARK allow = empty array, and thus end into the creation of more robust units. So whatever SPARK says about it, I will get back the test for the empty = = array case.
