fpaq0 in ADA

[kaitz]

This is fpaq0 ported to ADA language.
source: http://mattmahoney.net/dc/fpaq0.cpp

Used GPS 19.1 dev enviroment for that. Executable is static.
Compression/decompression is identical to cpp source.

This is first time to write something in ADA so probably not the best example writing correct code.

So can you explain what you see in Ada that makes it useful for compression algorithms?
This source looks pretty similar to pascal/delphi to me.

Lol I haven't used Ada for ages. That is cool though, kaitz. Thanks! Next someone should port it to Fortran, Basic, and APL lol (Has anyone here used APL for anything in the last 30 years?)

@JamesWasil: I think its not just a random choice of language - https://encode.su/threads/3064-paq8p...ll=1#post62339

Kaitz you are my hero
Should you be able to write it in delphi?
Have a good sunday!
