Hi Peter, hi Waldek, (and fricas-devel list),
since I wanted to take advantage of Aldor's ability to show me exactly
which functions are still unimplemented, I tried to compile a .spad file
with Aldor.
There were a few expected problems because the Aldor compiler is more
strict with respect to types. But then I hit the problem with a missing
setelt!.
Obviously, in libfricas, we have "set!" instead of "setelt!". That's
necessary so that assignment "a(i,j,k) := val" works in Aldor.
Unfortunately, I was using "setelt!" by its name and stumpled over the
problem that "setelt!" is actually missing. (Below shown for the domain
"Reference".
Of course, that's not a very big problem, but in order to make the
languages SPAD and Aldor more similar, it would be good, if "setelt!"
would be renamed to "set!" in FriCAS.
find . -type f -exec grep --color -nH -e 'setelt!' {} +|grep -Ev
'qsetelt!|~:|ChangeLog'| grep --color 'setelt!'|wc -l
361
Waldek, I know it's only a cosmetic change but would you approve such a
patch?
Ralf
