The 35th International Rexx Symposium in Brisbane, Australia, is about
to start with tutorials this Sunday (tomorrow), March 3rd.
There are tutorials on ooRexx and the ooRexx-Java bridge (no need to
learn the Java syntax, BTW!) on Sunday. One can use these
infrastructures in Linux installments on the mainframe and exactly the
same software on your personal PCs or workstations running Windows,
macOS or any number of Unixes.
So if you have knowledge of REXX and kept your curiosity for new
developments and want to increase you problem solution capabilities, the
symposium is a chance to quickly and cheaply realize/assess what is and
can become possible for you.
The link to further symposium information including the schedule can be
found at <https://www.rexxla.org/>, just click the box on the upper
right hand corner labeled "Symposium Details". Note: it is the first
time that the International Rexx symposium takes place in the
Australian/Asian timezone, so check out your local times of the
presentations.
Working with the easy to learn, to read, to use and to maintain dynamic
programming language family of Rexx has always been fun and a real
benefit and critical success factor.
A professional programmer not having a dynamic language in his workbench
portfolio can simply not solve certain problems with the ease and speed
of a dynamic language. So all static programming language fans, this is
an opportunity to get a glimpse of how easy and how powerful a dynamic
language, especially from the Rexx family of programming languages, can
be!
So if you have a little bit of time and curiosity to learn about new
technologies and developments that may help you personally and
immediately, then chime in ... :)
Your professional career may benefit from the acquired knowledge.
