Does anybody have a reference for the language RF-Maple, which I remember reading about a few years ago. It is a synthesis of relational and functional styles (hence RF), written by a Canadian University (hence Maple). I seem to remember Paul Voda having something to do with it (poss. one of the authors of the paper I was reading), but I could be completely wrong on that one. Ideally, I would like to know if the source or executables are available on a research basis (ie cheap/free, but not necessarily supported). Many thanks in advance for any information, Ian. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Ian Dickinson, Hewlett Packard Laboratories, Bristol, England| |net: ijd@hplb.uucp ijd%idickins@hplabs.HP.COM ..!mcvax!ukc!hplb!ijd| |"I've been to every single book I know +-------------------+ | To soothe the thoughts that plague me so" -Sting | voice: 0272-799910| |Nevertheless, my opinions are entirely my own fault | | +-----------------------------------------------------+-------------------+

He's started up a company that has developed a language called Trilogy (reviews in the 3/88 issue of Byte and the 4/88 issue of Computer Language). Trilogy combines aspects of procedural (Pascal, C), declarative (Lisp, Prolog) and and relational database languages. Dr. Paul J.
