[comp.lang.ada] query: package for set manipulation

bertrand@cui.UUCP (IBRAHIM Bertrand) (03/03/88)

I hope this is the correct newsgroup for such a request.

Before reinventing the wheel and build my own generic package for manipulating
sets "a la Pascal", I'd like to know if anybody has already done a similar thing
and would be ready to share it. The package would be used for academic purposes
only and any copyright notice would of course be kept in the source code.

Chapter 10 of 'Software Components with Ada' by Grady Booch has source
for a generic package which will probably do what you want.
