Book Description

Series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science | Publication Date: July 11, 1997

Ada 95, the enhanced version of the Ada programming language, is now in place and has attracted much attention in the community since the International Standard ISO/IEC 8652:1995(E) for the language was approved in 1995. The Ada 95 Rationale comes in four parts. The introductory part is a general discussion of the scope and objectives of Ada 95 and its major technical features. The second part contains a more detailed step by step account of the core language. The third part consists of several annexes addressing the predefined environment and specialized application areas. Finally, the three appendices of the fourth part are devoted to the upward compatibility with Ada 83, a few changes since the drafts of the standard were made public, and a summary of requirements.

5.0 out of 5 stars Companion book to the standard, by the same folk., February 9, 2000

By A Customer

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Ada 95 Rationale: The Language - The Standard Libraries (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) (Paperback)

There is the official Ada 95 standard, and then there is this campanion book that explains WHY the various parts of the standard are as they are and what other options were considered.

But this is *NOT* a beginner book.
