The missing symbols, like "open_server" and "sock_get_int" are in C code that is part of the axiom distribution. "sock_get_int" lives in src/lib/sockio-c.c.pamphlet If you look at src/lib/Makefile you'll see that the goal is to create the library libspad.a This library is linked with the GCL imag

I've long believed (and even did thesis work) that interval arithmetic is the best way to implement provisos. For purely arithmetic results it can generate interesting results. For symbolic results the answers are even more interesting. Frink played with interval arithmetic and got some interesti

How do we resolve things like Aldor's libalgebra vs. Axiom's libraries? I would propose that we forget about Aldor's native libraries for now (as nice, though limited, as they are). If I knew where to hook libaldor into Axiom, I would already have done so. But libaldor basically starts from

I can't help wondering if the material in the Reference section of the Aldor Users Guide might be enough for us to define at least a basic Aldor compiler in Lisp, and build on that. I am strongly against writing a new compiler. That is too much effort. And the compiler also falls under the APL1
