: I'm trying to converta Modula-2 program to Ada.  I don't have a reference 
: book available to me for some of the commands in Modula-2.  What is INC 
: and DEC? From the program I'm reading it looks like the increment and 
: decrement.  However, one of the lines says:

:  INC ( SumOfWaits, (Time - PassEntryTime) ) 

   SumOfWaits will be increased by the difference between Time and 
PassEntryTime.

   SumOfWaits := SumOfWaits + (Time - PassEntryTime)


: where all of these variables 
: are Cardinal variables.  Some other lines say INC (Time)


  Time will be increased by 1

  Time := Time + 1



: and another says  DEC (ServiceTimeLeft).



   ServiceTimeLeft will be decreased by 1

   ServiceTimeLift := ServiceTimeLef - 1


: What do they mean, or can someone point me to a Web Page with this 
: information.
