39 -- Note: although the functions in this package are in a sense Pure, the
40 -- package cannot be declared as Pure, since the arguments are addresses,
41 -- not the data, and the result is not pure wrt the address values.

49 -- with the array starting at address Right of length Right_Len.
50 -- The comparison is in the normal Ada semantic sense of array
51 -- comparison. The result is -1,0,+1 for Left<Right, Left=Right,
52 -- Left>Right respectively.
