To do linear algebra naturally, you really need those. This may be a really lightweight way to get that - without the distinction between "arrays" and "matrixes", which I think we're trying to get rid of with the @ operator. when would this flag be used? - linear algebra operations (mostly @ -- anything else?) - broadcasting??? neat idea, anyway. -CHB -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov
