Hi Dick, J handles them quite well.
One of the stuff I do when I'm bored is use J to solve the physics problems from the book: DESIGN NOTE LOG, G.O.D. (General Operations Director) By Robert W. Compton ISBN: 0-9607376-3-6 Well, it's essentially basic physics but I just picked it up from a used book store for less than 2 USD so it's ok. I seem to recall that J has built-in primitives for handling series and a lot of fancy stuff. ;) You'll just need to dig in though. One way to find what libraries are available is through the Add-On libraries that can be seen/installed through Run->Package Manager menu. The other way is to open the Run->Project Manager menu and when the Project Manager dialog box pops-up ... click on the Libraries tab and review all the available libraries there. ;) Of course, I would suggest the Studio->Labs to get a tutorial on some J stuff. r/Alex -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of DIETER ENSSLEN Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 1:16 PM To: General forum Subject: Re: [Jgeneral] Syntax of J; was Re^n: Array Based Languages Alex more impressive and surprising stuff lots and lots and lots to learn here one of my questions, how is J in handling series, calculus and fancy high level CAS and high level physics math? thanks Dick ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
