  Not being able to directly print an integer without calling a function to convert it to a string is awkward. The article presents this bit of code: with ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO; procedure Main is myNumber: Integer; begin myNumber := 123; Put_Line ( Integer'Image (myNumber) ); end Main;

    There are several ways to do this. Put_Line (myNumber'Image); works just as well as Integer'Image. with Ada.Integer_Text_IO; use Ada.Integer_Text_IO; Put (myNumber); Integer_Text_IO is included in the standard library.

There's also a proposal to add format strings to the language: https://github.com/AdaCore/ada-spark-rfcs/pull/77 https://github.com/AdaCore/ada-spark-rfcs/pull/77
