Ada compilers must be certified, so if you are developing software for
avionics *you have* to write your software with a compiler certified for
avionics development.

As you can see you don't lose the first 2, After that you want 4

If you print the variable, before associate any value to it you will get:

And then eu want the same variable but with only 2 element, then
