The SPARK LRM is not really designed for novices. Much better to start
with
John Barnes' book (most obviously available from amazon.co.uk) or
with the Tokeneer download package and the Tokeneer Discovery Tutorial
package that we did - both available from www.adacore.com/tokeneer

Yes the LRM is not a beginner's document. It'll come handy afterwards.
I've heard about Barnes' book and I think that it's the only book
available on SPARK. Thanks for the tokeener link. I need to study the
documents therein.

I course I meant tokeneer and not tokeener as I wrote. Sorry for this
slip.
