This course explores how to use the Ada language in real-world scenarios
47+
that extend beyond the complexity of lab exercises. The resulting solutions
48+
to these scenarios are idioms and techniques, some common to various
49+
programming languages and some specific to Ada. Multiple preliminary
50+
solutions to a given scenario (when they exist) are presented and analyzed
51+
for strengths and weaknesses, leading to the final preferred solution and
52+
its analysis. As a result, readers |mdash| especially those relatively new to
53+
the language |mdash| can learn how experienced Ada developers apply the
54+
language in actual practice. Prior knowledge of Ada is required, although
4855
explanations of the underlying semantics are provided when appropriate.
