    Using E. A. Manes' notion of an Ada-algebra (a testing tool for programming languages) as a point of entry, the authors (1) reduce the number of identities that define an Ada-algebra, (2) establish a one-one correspondence between Ada-algebras and 3-rings with unity, (3) show that every Ada-algebra can be generated by a Boolean algebra contained in it, and (4) study the link between Ada-ideals and Boolean ideals.
