__TOC__
Current Development Stage for '''Ada Programming''' is "{{stage|75%|Jul 27, 2005}}". At this date, there are more than 200 pages in this book, which makes '''Ada Programming''' the larger of the [[Computer programming|programming]] wikibooks <small>(see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wikistats/wikibooks/EN/Wikibooks_EN.htm wikistats] or [[:Category:Ada Programming]])</small>.
But still there is always room for improvement —— do help us to expand '''Ada Programming'''. Even beginners will find areas to participate.
== About Ada == {{Wikipedia|Ada programming language}}
It has particular strengths for safety-critical and high-reliability applications. But these strengths are useful for any development where there is a wish for "bug free" software.
Ada is fine for [[w:Rapid_application_development|RAD <small>(Rapid Application Development)</small>]], and is amenable to test driven design —a—a la [[w:Extreme_Programming|XP <small>(Extreme Programming)</small>]].
=== The Language Reference Manual === {{Wikipedia|ISO 8652}}
The Ada Reference Manual (RM) —full—full name ''[[w:ISO 8652|Ada Reference Manual, ISO/IEC 8652:1995(E)]]''—— is the official language definition. If you have any question and nobody can answer you, you will find something in the RM <small>(albeit often a bit cryptic for non-language-lawyers)</small>. For this reason, all complete <small>(not draft)</small> pages in '''Ada Programming''' contain links into the appropriate pages in the RM.
* You can browse the complete RM for Ada 95 in one of the following sites:
