5-0 out of 5 stars Good book for C++'er learning Ada
Man, these Ada books are expensive! But this was 1/2 of most others. The paperback cover is kinda flimsy, but it'll just make me look like a more experienced programmer as it gets doggeard '-)
3-0 out of 5 stars OK, but not for beginners
Like the Ada language itself, I find this book wordy and repetitive, but complete. It really does seem to have full descriptions of all the language features. I'm not sure, because I have to flip to so many different sections to see one feature described, that I really don't know whether I found everything.5-0 out of 5 stars This is NOT visual Basic
This is not a begginers guide, or a "for Dummies" book either. You are not going to be spoon fed here. To get the most from this book you need to do a bit of poking around on the internet concerning the "Hello world" of Ada95, also the structure of Ada programs, interfaces, bodys, then jump in to this work. You will find all you need, but this is not an ARM (annotated reference manual). Be ready to jump around in the text. Use the included Aonix compiler, or the one that comes with Linux. Rememeber this is a small book covering a big subject. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book for Professionals
If you are in the business of creating serious software that is safety critical or security related then this book is essential reading, it is also an excellent guide if you have an interest in how such software is created. Focusing on how the SPARK language assures correctness throughout the construction of the software and how the supporting tools allow analysis of the resulting program, the book forms an essential reference work for users of the SPARK approach to developing software.Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Well written, but missing illustrations.
I have reviewed most of the books that are readily available on Ada. This book was well written and Dr. Toole is truly the recognized authority of Ada and her life. I found an earlier edition of this book throughinterlibrary loan and was disappointed that this edition did not offer thesame illustrations and pictures. If you are interested in finding outmore about Ada especially from her own letters, this is truly one of thebest books out there.I would recommend reading at least one other book onAda Lovlace in addition to this one, for balance,at times Dr. Toole mayhave been too kind to Ada's memory. 5-0 out of 5 stars The History of a Passionate Visionary
Toole's book is an excellent introduction to the life and work of themathematical visionary, Ada Byron King.Toole's treatment allows thereader access to King's luminous mind--no small achievement.2-0 out of 5 stars Too much idolatry
This book is not about Ada but rather the author's defense of Ada's image and place in history.Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Great book for learning ADA, but long....
This book is great for people just starting with ADA because it initially goes through the basics of a program and then going through every component in detail.Since I was already proficient in C and C++ it was nice how the book points out how the commands are similar to not only C but also Pascal and COBOL (even though I don't know those two).I really like the format of the book.You get the format definition, then the syntax, and finally a short example of the instruction being used.
1-0 out of 5 stars Not a book for those new to Ada
This is a poor book to learn Ada from.I'll agree that the book is a good reference tool, once you have a firm grasp on the language.I took a course four years ago with 14 other experienced programmers (Ada, C, ...), all of them thought this book was difficult to use as a learning tool.It lacks good examples and is poorly orginized.Go elsewhere if your new to Ada 95.

5-0 out of 5 stars The ultimate Ada95 book, if you are experienced programmer.
Over two years back, I had to write and test huge amount of code (about 200-330K LOC) in Ada 95 (I had over 8 yrs. Ada 83 experience) in very short time. A colleague suggested to use this book. It has helped me in everyway. The book contains very clear explanations about all the new conceptsin Ada and it also covers the real-time issues, OOP, low-level multilingualprogramming, distributed programming etc. Read more

the authors of this book is famous. and the contents of the book do not disappoint me.
5-0 out of 5 stars The definitive work on concurrency in Ada
By far the best on the subject.Offers complete coverage of any aspect of concurrency with Ada, including real-time and distributed programming issues.Burns and Wellings are the acknowledged experts on thistopic.5-0 out of 5 stars ESSENTIAL & EXCELLENT for every PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMMER
Ada has been one of few languages which provides facilities for concurrent programming, but readings for the feature had been limited. This book is not only the first but also an excellent guide to the capability of the new Ada standard.Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Good Textbook
As a freshman at an upstate New York state university, this was the textbook for the second sequential computer science course. Of course, the choice was obvious: McCormick being a former professor at the school. Atthat point, I was a beginning programmer, having already taken basicprogramming classes. This book, however, is responsible for my now-firmgrasp of data structures and algorithms. Both dynamic and staticstructures, complex and simple, this book is the primer for anunderstanding of data structures in Ada.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Introductory Ada book for Beginner's!
As a C/C++ programmer, I desired a beginner's Ada book which was fully informative, easy to understand, and inviting to read with sufficient examples both for reviews and exercises throughout the chapters.5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to Ada
Rendezvous with Ada is an excellent introduction to the wide scope and applicability of the Ada 95 language. The book is well written, containing chapters that are fairly self-contained and touch upon all key Adaconcepts. One suggestion for a future edition would be inclusion of achapter on Ada's current use in real-world projects, as well as a statusreport on Ada bindings to various industry-standard APIs.

5-0 out of 5 stars An exceptionally well-written and complete book.
I've owned Rendezvous with Ada 95 for about three years and it is still my favorite Ada 95 book. I have purchased other Ada 95 books that I like but none of them is as clearly written as this book by Naidich.It is thefirst book I loan to friends who want to learn about Ada programming and itis the first book I refer to when I want to explore another capability ofthis wonderful programming language. ...

3-0 out of 5 stars If your looking for a refrence book this is NOT it!
I purchased this book in the hope that I could use it as a refrence as well as a tutorial for using the Gnat compiler.It failed in both cases.Don't get me wrong, This is a good book if you have time to read it coverto cover.I do not!Further, the book never goes into much depth aboutthe copiler and most of the data on the disk was unaccessable.Myconclusion is that if this is your first time with Ada and you have time tospare this book is for you.Every one else should look else where.

5-0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction to Ada95.
Ada 95 is nicely written easy to understand book. I use this book in beginning Ada 95 course that I teach. It explains programming concepts and Ada 95 constructs in a interesting way by citing examples. It comes with aCD which has GNAT Ada95 compiler (for PC/MAC/UNIX) as well as keydocumentations like ARM, AARM, and Rationale in text, html and postscriptformat. I highly recommend this book to any one interested in learning Ada95 from beginning. Great book!!!

4-0 out of 5 stars Good text for an Intro to Ada95 class.
The text is an organized, well written, generously exampled introduction to Ada95 for the novice.It provides a good basis for object oriented programming using Ada95 for generics and privates (ADTs), it does not cover as fully or clearly inheritance and/or polymorphism. This book is apropriate for a 200 level CS class. I personally was disappointed with the amount of clear differentiation between Ada83 and Ada95. The section on tasking dismisses conditional Select entry as being beyond the scope of the book.Variant records are given too large a play. though they are a good intro to the thinking behind Ada polymorphism, in practice (Ada83) they are too code intensive and have serious short comings when used as private data elements.Overall, I think that this is a good, complete Ada95 introductory text.It is NOT an in-depth push the boundaries of the language or a "here's how to go from Ada 83 to Ada 95." ...

This is the Ada book I turn to first if I have questions on syntax or how to deal with specific programming topics. It has a good index and handles topics I've not yet encountered in other Ada books. I would recommend this to someone starting in the language who wants a decent reference. It may beless helpful to someone with many years of Ada experience, but I'd stillgive it a look. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars RecentStudent
Well, recently completed my computer science course in Data Structures, this was one of the 2 books we used. John McCormick happens to be the teacher, and one of the Co-Authors of both books we used. I found the book to be pretty good in giving you some understanding of the language, and towards the end of class, me and some fellow classmates agreed with John on the fact that Ada wouldprobably be a better first language for Colleges to use, since it really helps with building good habits simply with how the language is desinged.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good for beginners
We had to buy this book as part of our university degree to help us learn the Ada Language. While it seems a little daunting at first it does a really good job at what it is for and that is to teach people how to program in Ada. :) The appendix at the back is extremely useful as is the index giving a clear and quick way to locate important information. Sometimes the book doesn't go into enough detail that you will find useful but overall it does a pretty good job. ... Read more
