I would appreciate if someone could help me.

Problem 1. (a) Write an Ada declaration for a rectangular two dimensional array of integers named A, assuming that the subscripts will range from 1 to 10 in each dimension.

(b) Write an Ada declaration for a one-dimensional array named A, where each element in the array is a one-dimensional array of integers. Assume that the subscripts for both will range from 1 to 10.

(c) What are the advantages of declaring the array as described in part (a)?

(d) What are the advantages of declaring the array as descibed in part (b)?

Solution

a)  type A is array(INTEGER range 1..10,
INTEGER range 1..10) of INTEGER;

b)  type A2 is array(INTEGER range 1..10) of INTEGER;
type A3 is array(INTEGER range 1..10) of A2;

c ) and d ) The key is to remember that in second case (case b), each \"row\" of the array is a separate array object with its own array type; while in the multi-dimensional case (case a), rows don\'t have their own types.

A sample code to show the difference between the two methods. Look at the way they are accessed in the code.

==== Code ====

with Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Integer_Text_IO;
use Ada.Text_IO,Ada.Integer_Text_IO;
procedure Hello is
type A is array(INTEGER range 1..10,
INTEGER range 1..10) of INTEGER;
type A2 is array(INTEGER range 1..10) of INTEGER;
type A3 is array(INTEGER range 1..10) of A2;
x : A ;
y : A3;
begin
x(1,1) := 1 ;
y(1)(1) := 4;
  
Put(x(1,1));
Put(y(1)(1));
end Hello;
