A new dialect of APL called "J" has been developed by Iverson Software Incorporated and was announced at APL90. At the show, versions of J for the IBM PC and for the Mac were distributed free. There are also versions for the VAX, MIPS, and Next available. These latter three are presently available on a limited basis from me. J is an advanced dialect of APL. It has boxed arrays, operators that accept user defined functions, (true) user defined operators, and complex numbers. It uses the ASCII character set.

If J is free, can it be made available on some anonymous ftp site or on a fileserver? Otherwise, does anyone know where the Mac version could be found? - Juha ---- Juha Haataja / jhaataja@finsun.csc.fi / EARN: jhaataja at finfun --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- << Welcome to the CA universe.
