Hi Wendell, can you elaborate on a few of the points you made? 1. How do you see K as a simpler language than J? My thoughts: a. rank is more complex in J b. J has some specialized primitives: q,p,a c. J's train rules can be difficult to grasp to a newcomer 2. What facilities for data manipulation are you referring to and what would a library in J provide? Thanks for your thoughts ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
