programming|structured]], [[statically typed]], [[Imperative programming|imperative]], and [[Object-oriented programming|object-oriented]] [[high-level programming language]], inspired by [[Pascal (programming language)|Pascal]] and other languages. It has built-in language support for ''[[design by contract]]'' (DbC), extremely [[Strong and weak typing|strong typing]], explicit concurrency, tasks, synchronous message passing, protected objects, and [[nondeterministic programming|non-determinism]]. Ada improves code safety and maintainability by using the [[compiler]] to find errors in favor of [[Runtime (program lifecycle phase)|runtime]] errors. Ada is an [[International standard|international]] [[technical standard]], jointly defined by the [[International Organization for Standardization]] (ISO), and the [[International Electrotechnical Commission]] (IEC). {{As of|May 2023}}, the standard, called Ada 2022 informally, is ISO/IEC 8652:2023.<ref name="ada-letters-june2023">{{cite journal | first=Luis Miguel | last=Pinho | title=From the Editor's Desk | journal=Ada Letters | volume=XLIII | number=1 | publisher=Association for Computing Machinery | date=June 2023 | page=3 | doi=10.1145/3631483 | doi-broken-date=1 November 2024 | url=https://dl.acm.org/action/showFmPdf?doi=10.1145%2F3631483}}</ref> Ada was originally designed by a team led by French [[computer scientist]] [[Jean Ichbiah]] of [[Groupe Bull|Honeywell]] under contract to the [[United States Department of Defense]] (DoD) from 1977 to 1983 to supersede over 450 programming languages used by the DoD at that time.<ref>{{cite web|title=The Ada Programming Language|url=http://groups.engin.umd.umich.edu/CIS/course.des/cis400/ada/ada.html|website=University of Mich|access-date=27 May 2016|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160522063844/http://groups.engin.umd.umich.edu/CIS/course.des/cis400/ada/ada.html|archive-date=2016-05-22}}</ref> Ada was named after [[Ada Lovelace]] (1815–1852), who has been credited as the first computer programmer.<ref>{{cite journal|doi=10.1109/MAHC.2003.1253887|title=Lovelace & Babbage and the creation of the 1843 'notes'|journal=IEEE Annals of the History of Computing|volume=25|issue=4|pages=16–26|year=2003|last1=Fuegi|first1=J|last2=Francis|first2=J|s2cid=40077111}}</ref> == Features == Ada was originally designed for [[embedded system|embedded]] and [[real-time computing|real-time]] systems. The Ada&nbsp;95 revision, designed by S. Tucker Taft of [[Intermetrics]] between 1992 and 1995, improved support for systems, numerical, financial, and [[object-oriented programming]] (OOP). Features of Ada include: [[Strong and weak typing|strong typing]], [[modular programming]] mechanisms (packages), [[run-time checking]], [[Parallel computing|parallel processing]] ([[Task (computing)|tasks]], synchronous [[message passing]], protected objects, and nondeterministic [[Switch statement|select statements]]), [[exception handling]], and [[generic programming|generics]]. Ada&nbsp;95 added support for [[object-oriented programming]], including [[dynamic dispatch]]. The syntax of Ada minimizes choices of ways to perform basic operations, and prefers English keywords (such as "or else" and "and then") to symbols (such as "||" and "&&"). Ada uses the basic arithmetical operators "+", "-", "*", and "/", but avoids using other symbols. Code blocks are delimited by words such as "declare", "begin", and "end", where the "end" (in most cases) is followed by the identifier of the block it closes (e.g., ''if ... end if'', ''loop ... end loop''). In the case of conditional blocks this avoids a ''[[dangling else]]'' that could pair with the wrong nested if-expression in other languages like C or Java. Ada is designed for developing very large software systems. Ada packages can be compiled separately. Ada package specifications (the package interface) can also be compiled separately without the implementation to check for consistency. This makes it possible to detect problems early during the design phase, before implementation starts. A large number of [[Compile time|compile-time]] checks are supported to help avoid bugs that would not be detectable until run-time in some other languages or would require explicit checks to be added to the source code. For example, the syntax requires explicitly named closing of blocks to prevent errors due to mismatched end tokens. The adherence to strong typing allows detecting many common software errors (wrong parameters, range violations, invalid references, mismatched types, etc.) either during compile-time, or otherwise during run-time. As concurrency is part of the language specification, the [[compiler]] can in some cases detect potential [[Deadlock (computer science)|deadlocks.]]<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.adaic.org/resources/add_content/docs/95style/html/sec_6/|title=Concurrency – Chapter 6 – Ada 95 QUALITY AND STYLE Guide|website=adaic.org|access-date=November 5, 2021}}</ref> Compilers also commonly check for misspelled [[identifier]]s, visibility of packages, redundant declarations, etc. and can provide warnings and useful suggestions on how to fix the error. Ada also supports [[Runtime system|run-time]] checks to protect against access to unallocated memory, [[buffer overflow]] errors, range violations, [[off-by-one error]]s, array access errors, and other detectable bugs. These checks can be disabled in the interest of runtime efficiency, but can often be compiled efficiently. It also includes facilities to help [[software verification|program verification]]. For these reasons, Ada is sometimes used in critical systems, where any [[anomaly in software|anomaly]] might lead to very serious consequences, e.g., accidental death, injury or severe financial loss. Examples of systems where Ada is used include [[avionics]], [[air traffic control]], [[Rail transport|railways]], banking, military and [[space technology]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Ada helps churn out less-buggy code|url=http://gcn.com/Articles/1999/06/30/Ada-helps-churn-out-lessbuggy-code.aspx|publisher=Government Computer News|access-date=2010-09-14|last1=Taft|first1=S.

Ada has no generic or untyped [[Pointer (computer programming)|pointers]]; nor does it implicitly declare any pointer type. Instead, all dynamic memory allocation and deallocation must occur via explicitly declared ''access types''. Each access type has an associated ''storage pool'' that handles the low-level details of memory management; the programmer can either use the default storage pool or define new ones (this is particularly relevant for [[Non-Uniform Memory Access]]). It is even possible to declare several different access types that all designate the same type but use different storage pools. Also, the language provides for ''accessibility checks'', both at compile time and at run time, that ensures that an ''access value'' cannot outlive the type of the object it points to.<ref>[https://youtube.com/watch?v=RyY01fRyGhM&t=419 no safe dynamic memory management in ADA], in: Writing Linux Kernel Modules in Safe Rust – Geoffrey Thomas & Alex Gaynor, The Linux Foundation, 2019-10-02</ref> Though the semantics of the language allow automatic [[garbage collection (computer science)|garbage collection]] of inaccessible objects, most implementations do not support it by default, as it would cause unpredictable behaviour in real-time systems. Ada does support a limited form of [[region-based memory management]]; also, creative use of storage pools can provide for a limited form of automatic garbage collection, since destroying a storage pool also destroys all the objects in the pool. A double-[[dash]] ("--"), resembling an [[em dash]], denotes comment text. Comments stop at end of line; there is intentionally no way to make a comment span multiple lines, to prevent unclosed comments from accidentally voiding whole sections of source code. Disabling a whole block of code therefore requires the prefixing of each line (or column) individually with "--". While this clearly denotes disabled code by creating a column of repeated "--" down the page, it also renders the experimental dis/re-enablement of large blocks a more drawn-out process in editors without block commenting support. The semicolon (";") is a [[statement terminator]], and the null or no-operation statement is <code>null;</code>. A single <code>;</code> without a statement to terminate is not allowed. Unlike most [[International Organization for Standardization|ISO]] standards, the Ada language definition (known as the ''Ada Reference Manual'' or ''ARM'', or sometimes the ''Language Reference Manual'' or ''LRM'') is [[free content]]. Thus, it is a common reference for Ada programmers, not only programmers implementing Ada compilers. Apart from the reference manual, there is also an extensive rationale document which explains the language design and the use of various language constructs. This document is also widely used by programmers. When the language was revised, a new rationale document was written. One notable [[free software]] tool that is used by many Ada programmers to aid them in writing Ada source code is the GNAT Programming Studio, and [[GNAT]] which is part of the [[GNU Compiler Collection]]. == History == In the 1970s the [[United States Department of Defense|US Department of Defense]] (DoD) became concerned by the number of different programming languages being used for its embedded computer system projects, many of which were obsolete or hardware-dependent, and none of which supported safe modular programming. In 1975, a [[working group]], the [[High Order Language Working Group]] (HOLWG), was formed with the intent to reduce this number by finding or creating a programming language generally suitable for the department's and the [[Ministry of Defence (United Kingdom)|UK Ministry of Defence]]'s requirements. After many iterations beginning with an original [[Straw man proposal|straw-man proposal]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://iment.com/maida/computer/requirements/strawman.htm|title=DoD – Strawman Requirements – April 1975|website=iment.com|accessdate=Apr 4, 2023}}</ref> the eventual programming language was named Ada. The total number of high-level programming languages in use for such projects fell from over 450 in 1983 to 37 by 1996. HOLWG crafted the [[Steelman language requirements]], a series of documents stating the requirements they felt a programming language should satisfy. Many existing languages were formally reviewed, but the team concluded in 1977 that no existing language met the specifications. [[File:Ada Lovelace portrait.jpg|thumb|225x225px|Watercolour painting of Ada Lovelace]] Requests for proposals for a new programming language were issued and four contractors were hired to develop their proposals under the names of Red ([[Intermetrics]] led by Benjamin Brosgol), Green ([[Honeywell]], led by [[Jean Ichbiah]]), Blue ([[SofTech, Inc.|SofTech]], led by John Goodenough)<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sei.cmu.edu/about/people/jbg.cfm |title=John Goodenough &#124; SEI Staff Profile |publisher=Sei.cmu.edu |access-date=2014-01-27}}</ref> and Yellow ([[SRI International]], led by Jay Spitzen).<!-- Though Intermetrics and Bull have previous links, I am including them for parallelism. --> In April 1978, after public scrutiny, the Red and Green proposals passed to the next phase. In May 1979, the Green proposal, designed by Jean Ichbiah at Honeywell, was chosen and given the name Ada—after Augusta Ada King, Countess of Lovelace, usually known as [[Ada Lovelace]]. This proposal was influenced by the language [[LIS (programming language)|LIS]] that Ichbiah and his group had developed in the 1970s. The preliminary Ada reference manual was published in ACM SIGPLAN Notices in June 1979. The Military Standard reference manual was approved on December 10, 1980 (Ada Lovelace's birthday), and given the number MIL-STD-1815 in honor of Ada Lovelace's birth year.

The other names are just informal ones referencing a certain edition. Other related standards include [[Graphical Kernel System|ISO/IEC 8651]]-3:1988 ''Information processing systems—Computer graphics—Graphical Kernel System (GKS) language bindings—Part 3: Ada''. == Language constructs == Ada is an [[ALGOL]]-like programming language featuring control structures with reserved words such as ''if'', ''then'', ''else'', ''while'', ''for'', and so on. However, Ada also has many data structuring facilities and other abstractions which were not included in the original [[ALGOL 60]], such as [[type system|type definitions]], [[record (computer science)|records]], [[pointer (computer programming)|pointers]], [[enumerated type|enumerations]]. Such constructs were in part inherited from or inspired by [[Pascal (programming language)|Pascal]]. === "Hello, world!" in Ada === A common example of a language's [[Syntax (programming languages)|syntax]] is the [[Hello world program]]: (hello.adb) <syntaxhighlight lang="ada" line> with Ada.Text_IO; procedure Hello is begin Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ("Hello, world!"); end Hello; </syntaxhighlight> This program can be compiled by using the freely available open source compiler [[GNAT]], by executing <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">gnatmake hello.adb</syntaxhighlight> === Data types === Ada's type system is not based on a set of predefined [[primitive types]] but allows users to declare their own types. This declaration in turn is not based on the internal representation of the type but on describing the goal which should be achieved. This allows the compiler to determine a suitable memory size for the type, and to check for violations of the type definition at compile time and run time (i.e., range violations, buffer overruns, type consistency, etc.). Ada supports numerical types defined by a range, modulo types, aggregate types (records and arrays), and enumeration types. Access types define a reference to an instance of a specified type; untyped pointers are not permitted. Special types provided by the language are task types and protected types. For example, a date might be represented as: <syntaxhighlight lang="ada" line> type Day_type is range 1 .. 31; type Month_type is range 1 .. 12; type Year_type is range 1800 .. 2100; type Hours is mod 24; type Weekday is (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday); type Date is record Day : Day_type; Month : Month_type; Year : Year_type; end record; </syntaxhighlight> Important to note: Day_type, Month_type, Year_type, Hours are incompatible types, meaning that for instance the following expression is illegal: <syntaxhighlight lang="ada" line> Today: Day_type := 4; Current_Month: Month_type := 10; ... Today + Current_Month ... -- illegal </syntaxhighlight> The predefined plus-operator can only add values of the same type, so the expression is illegal. Types can be refined by declaring [[subtyping|subtypes]]: <syntaxhighlight lang="ada" line> subtype Working_Hours is Hours range 0 .. 12; -- at most 12 Hours to work a day subtype Working_Day is Weekday range Monday ..

All standard constructs and deep-level early exit are supported, so the use of the also supported "[[goto (command)|go to]]" commands is seldom needed. <syntaxhighlight lang="ada" line> -- while a is not equal to b, loop. while a /= b loop Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ("Waiting"); end loop; if a > b then Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ("Condition met"); else Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ("Condition not met"); end if; for i in 1 .. 10 loop Ada.Text_IO.Put ("Iteration: "); Ada.Text_IO.Put (i); Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line; end loop; loop a := a + 1; exit when a = 10; end loop; case i is when 0 => Ada.Text_IO.Put ("zero"); when 1 => Ada.Text_IO.Put ("one"); when 2 => Ada.Text_IO.Put ("two"); -- case statements have to cover all possible cases: when others => Ada.Text_IO.Put ("none of the above"); end case; for aWeekday in Weekday'Range loop -- loop over an enumeration Put_Line ( Weekday'Image(aWeekday) ); -- output string representation of an enumeration if aWeekday in Working_Day then -- check of a subtype of an enumeration Put_Line ( " to work for " & Working_Hours'Image (Work_Load(aWeekday)) ); -- access into a lookup table end if; end loop; </syntaxhighlight> === Packages, procedures and functions === Among the parts of an Ada program are packages, procedures and functions. Functions differ from procedures in that they must return a value. Function calls cannot be used "as a statement", and their result must be assigned to a variable. However, since Ada 2012, functions are not required to be pure and may mutate their suitably declared parameters or the global state.<ref>{{cite web |title=Subprograms |url=https://learn.adacore.com/courses/intro-to-ada/chapters/subprograms.html#function-calls |website=learn.adacore.com |publisher=AdaCore |access-date=14 April 2024}}</ref> Example: Package specification (example.ads) <syntaxhighlight lang="ada" line> package Example is type Number is range 1 .. 11; procedure Print_and_Increment (j: in out Number); end Example; </syntaxhighlight> Package body (example.adb) <syntaxhighlight lang="ada" line> with Ada.Text_IO; package body Example is i : Number := Number'First; procedure Print_and_Increment (j: in out Number) is function Next (k: in Number) return Number is begin return k + 1; end Next; begin Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ( "The total is: " & Number'Image(j) ); j := Next (j); end Print_and_Increment; -- package initialization executed when the package is elaborated begin while i < Number'Last loop Print_and_Increment (i); end loop; end Example; </syntaxhighlight> This program can be compiled, e.g., by using the freely available open-source compiler [[GNAT]], by executing <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">gnatmake -z example.adb</syntaxhighlight> Packages, procedures and functions can nest to any depth, and each can also be the logical outermost block. Each package, procedure or function can have its own declarations of constants, types, variables, and other procedures, functions and packages, which can be declared in any order. === Pragmas === A pragma is a [[compiler directive]] that conveys information to the compiler to allow specific manipulating of compiled output.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://archive.adaic.com/standards/83lrm/html/lrm-02-08.html#2.8 |title=Ada 83 LRM, Sec 2.8: Pragmas |publisher=Archive.adaic.com |access-date=2014-01-27}}</ref> Certain pragmas are built into the language,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://archive.adaic.com/standards/83lrm/html/lrm-B.html |title=Ada 83 LRM, Appendix/Annex B: Predefined Language Pragmas |publisher=Archive.adaic.com |access-date=2014-01-27 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120206005541/http://archive.adaic.com/standards/83lrm/html/lrm-B.html |archive-date=2012-02-06}}</ref> while others are implementation-specific. Examples of common usage of compiler pragmas would be to disable certain features, such as run-time type checking or array subscript boundary checking, or to instruct the compiler to insert object code instead of a function call (as C/C++ does with [[inline function]]s). === Generics === {{excerpt|Generic programming|Generics in Ada}} == See also == {{Portal|Computer programming}} * [[List of compilers#Ada compilers|Ada compilers]] * [[APSE]] – a specification for a programming environment to support software development in Ada * [[Ravenscar profile]] – a subset of the Ada tasking features designed for safety-critical hard real-time computing * [[SPARK (programming language)|SPARK]] – a programming language consisting of a highly restricted subset of Ada, annotated with meta-information describing desired component behavior and individual runtime requirements * [[VHDL]], Ada-based hardware description language ==Notes== {{notelist}} {{reflist}} == References == === International standards === * [[ISO 8652|ISO/IEC 8652]]: Information technology—Programming languages—Ada * [[ISO 15291|ISO/IEC 15291]]: Information technology—Programming languages—Ada Semantic Interface Specification ([[wikt:ASIS|ASIS]]) * [[ISO 18009|ISO/IEC 18009]]: Information technology—Programming languages—Ada: Conformity assessment of a language processor ([[wikt:ACATS|ACATS]]) * [[IEEE 1003|IEEE Standard 1003.5b-1996]], the [[POSIX]] Ada binding * [https://web.archive.org/web/20041209184612/http://www.omg.org/technology/documents/formal/ada_language_mapping.htm Ada Language Mapping Specification], the [[CORBA]] [[interface description language]] (IDL) to Ada mapping === Rationale === These documents have been published in various forms, including print. * {{citation |url=http://archive.adaic.com/standards/83rat/html/Welcome.html |last1=Ichbiah |first1=Jean D. |author-link=Jean Ichbiah |last2=Barnes |first2=John G.
