Hi all !
I released JWithATwist. https://github.com/andrimne/JWithATwist
It is an experiment, a J-like language written in F#. I made it to learn
F# and FParsec.
It is a proposal for an alternative syntax of tacit J. I think what I
call the hook-and-fork logic is a dead-end road. I love the syntax of
explicit J and APL with right to left execution modified with
parenthesis. This is how JWithATwist works.
I thought JWithATwist would be a lot faster than J, because it is more
like a compiled language. It does not seem to be. I guess tacit J and
JWithATwist is actually very similar in how it basically works.
It is an experiment in J integration in .NET.
It has a possible use as an extension to F# for J and APL lovers.
It can possibly be used for experiments of J integration in .NET.
It contains a lot of possibly useful ideas for how J could be modified.
I think J programmers could learn about how J works and get ideas about
how it could be changed by looking in the manual and on the tests and
possibly trying it out in the console.
It is GPL.
All opinions are welcome.
Cheers,
Erling Hellenäs
