if you look in the spec file (.ads) you see that the array is defined
from 1 .. 100 and your Pairs start with 0. This means you are trying to
access outside the bounds of the array. Either change the pairs
initiation to 1 or do:


Pairs := Pairs+1;
if(pairs <= 100) then
 Males (Pairs) := new Male;
 Females (Pairs) := new Female;
end if;

Now the program won't crash, but it won't do much either.
