Vector 23, N°4

— About polynomials. Gianluigi Quario discovers new ways to handle
polynomials. First of two parts.

— Classes as a Tool of Thought. Paul Graham famously said programming
languages are not pens but pencils, for thinking your way through
problems. Simon Marsden shows how the class/instance structures in
APLX 4 offer new ways to think. And OO programmers chained to
compilers and object-relational interfaces might enjoy seeing classes
interpreted and redefined on-the-fly.

— Fire from heaven. Adrian Smith tries “q for Mortals”, Jeffry
Borror’s new tutorial for the q programming language. A gift from the
gods?
