“29 Execution of a program unit may encounter error situations in which normal program execution cannot continue. For example, an arithmetic computation may exceed the maximum allowed value of a number, or an attempt may be made to access an array component by using an incorrect index value. To deal with such error situations, the statements of a program unit can be textually followed by exception handlers that specify the actions to be taken when the error situation arises. Exceptions can be raised explicitly by a raise statement.” —:Ada-Europe’s Ada Reference Manual: Introduction: Language Summary See legal information

    “2 The language includes a complete facility for the support of real-time, concurrent programming. Errors can be signaled as exceptions and handled explicitly.” —:Ada-Europe’s Ada Reference Manual: Section 1: General See legal information
