Yes, Ada is.

Algorithms are defined in terms of established types, e.g. model numbers
or other well known structures. Ada works pretty good for non-numeric
algorithms too. So well, that many Ada programmers never go beyond this
stage and proclaim anathema to anything above it.

No, they do not introduce new types and do not form some structure of
their values. And "using" is not an abstraction anyway.
