Discover the Ada programming language by being gently guided through the various parts of the language and its latest available stable release. The goal in this book is to slowly ease you into the different topics. It is understood that you do not always have ample free time, so the text is easy to digest and concepts are spoon fed to the reader. Starting with the simplest of topics, detailed explanations demonstrate the how and why of Ada. You are strongly encouraged to experiment and break things (without which the learning process is linear and quite dull). At the end of Beginning Ada Programming, you will have an excellent understanding of the general topics that make up the Ada programming language and can tackle far more challenging topics. Each chapter builds on what was previously described. Furthermore, each code example is independent of others and will run all by itself. Instructions are provided where you can obtain an Ada compiler and how to debug your code. What You Will Learn Master basic types, control structures, procedures, and functions in AdaUse Ada arrays, records, and access typesImplement OO programming using AdaHandle the basics of I/O and interfacing with the operating systemTake advantage of string operators, data containers, multiprocessing with tasks, and moreWork with contracts and proofs, networks, and various Ada libraries Who This Book Is For Programmers who are new to Ada, with at least some experience in programming, especially scientific programming.

Ada 95: The Craft of Object-oriented Programming is a beginner's introduction to Ada 95 which uses an example-driven approach that gradually develops small trivial programs into large case studies. The main emphasis of this exciting new publication is on using object-oriented technology to write maintainable, extensible programs. Program design concepts are introduced throughout the text, using maintenance scenarios to highlight shortcomings and produce improved designs. Practical issues such as debugging techniques are tackled, and important Ada features not found in other languages are dealt with early in the text. These include exception handling, user-defined types, procedures, functions, packages and child packages. Ada 95: The Craft of Object-oriented Programming is essential reading for anybody who requires a comprehensive guide to the Ada 95 programming language. Key features: Example-driven approach with examples developed gradually throughout the text, emphasis upon maintenance and maintainability of programs, in-chapter problems and end-of-chapter exercises, and worked examples and case studies throughout the text to aid student learning.

Programming and Problem Solving with Ada 95 provides a solid introduction to programming while introducing the capabilities of Ada 95 and its syntax without overwhelming the student. The book focuses on the development of good programming habits. This text offers superior pedagogy that has long defined computer science education, including problem solving case studies, testing and debugging sections, quick checks, exam preparation, programming warm-up exercises, and programming problems. The extensive coverage of material in such a student-friendly resource means that more rigor, more theory, greater use of abstraction and modeling, and the earlier application of software engineering principles can be employed.

The latest edition of the definitive guide to the Ada language covers the full details of the core language Ada 2012 as updated by the 2016 ISO Corrigendum and introduces the key new features in Ada 2022. The book is in four parts. It begins by introducing the fundamental concepts for newcomers, before moving onto algorithmic aspects and then structural features such as OOP and multitasking. The fourth part gives details of the standard library and interaction with the external environment. Six complete executable programs illustrate the core features of the language in action. The book concludes with an appendix focussing on the new features in Ada 2022. These new features aid program proof and the efficient use of multicore architectures.

Do you enjoy playing computer games or learning programming code? As a child, Ada Lovelace loved learning about math and science. As an adult, she used that knowledge to create the first computer program—before electronic computers even existed! When Lovelace was a child, girls didn't typically study math. But she loved the subject and often dreamed about new machines. Lovelace learned from famous mathematicians and became friends with inventor and engineer Charles Babbage. Realizing the full potential of his calculating machines, she became a pioneer of computer programming. But how did she get there? Find out how Lovelace's determination helped her become the first computer programmer.

The arrival and popularity of multi-core processors has sparked a renewed interest in the development of parallel programs. Similarly, the availability of low-cost microprocessors and sensors has generated a great interest in embedded real-time programs. This book provides students and programmers whose backgrounds are in traditional sequential programming with the opportunity to expand their capabilities into parallel, embedded, real-time and distributed computing. It also addresses the theoretical foundation of real-time scheduling analysis, focusing on theory that is useful for actual applications. Written by award-winning educators at a level suitable for undergraduates and beginning graduate students, this book is the first truly entry-level textbook in the subject. Complete examples allow readers to understand the context in which a new concept is used, and enable them to build and run the examples, make changes, and observe the results.
