Hi Torsten To re-implement APL or J capabilities in pure smalltalk is an interesting approach. The problem I see currently is the performance when handling large arrays with thousands or millions of rows and/or columns. During some performance tests I saw that for arrays with a few hundred rows

Hi Alexandre Please have look at the video description on youtube. There you will find all the download links as well as instructions (ReadMe.txt) on how to install the Pharo (.mcz) and the J (pre-configured J environment) part. The .mcz file contains all the examples from the video. See www.jsof

Hi Stef Sorry, I didn't know the OOPAL paper until this evening :) I read through it very quickly, and I think it's a somewhat different approach I have to think about. To me the OOPAL concept looks like a smalltalk language extension, but with smalltalk oriented syntax, that is able to handle

Hi Martin! I did not know J at all. How can I try your code? You are invoking functions using NativeBoost of the J library? Cheers, Alexandre > On Mar 8, 2015, at 8:13 AM, Herr Martin Saurer > wrote: > > Hello All > > Pharo now has an integration into the J programming language. > > Pleas
