I disagree. These are mostly extremely basic questions that the OP would 
not be asking if he'd looked at any text or worked through any tutorial. 
Given the number of texts and tutorials available on line through 
adapower.com and adaworld.com, I don't think it's a good idea to answer 
these questions, as it only encourages more. While I'm all for 
encouraging people to learn Ada, I'm not in favor of teaching it through 
posts and responses on c.l.a. I'm perfectly willing to answer questions 
from someone who's made the effort to learn the basics.
