GA is infinite in nature. It can be viewed mathematically as factorizable Clifford algebra but consistent geometrical interpretation is not possible as elements of Clifford algebra can be constructed by addition. Haskell cannot profit from functional analyses methods as yet - hence multidimensionality in geometrical context sprung to my mind. I didn't think Don wanted his examples to compete with tens of well groomed low-dimensional Clifford packages and libraries spanning Java, C, C++, all CAS-es, etc. On this level of presentation only multidimensionality can give Haskell any justice. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
