Hi,

In Modula-2, is it possible to call a procedure which
has paramenters of AnyType ? e.g

PROCEDURE AddOne(VAR number:AnyType);
(* code here *)
END AddOne;

I require this, as the same operations need to be carried
out on different types... and i'd rather not have x procedures
for x different types.. as this looks really messy.

Any pointers on books, FAQ would also be great.

Thankyou.
