Re: I'm a bit lost Re: Meaning of decorations
I agree: a reference implementation for ALL features is most useful and
necessary, if not mandatory.
Many people favor Matlab because almost all attention is focussed
on the mathematical matter, not on implementation issues. Using
Matlab's operator concept it can easily be done from scratch.

Subject: Re: I'm a bit lost Re: Meaning of decorations
I'm new to this mailing list, but I'd like to second the comment by RBK
regarding
a reference implementation.
I am confused by the decoration system, but have
not studied it that much. I suspect that the best way to understand it,
personally,
is to implement it on top of an interval package I have written (in
Lisp). So I would be
greatly aided in doing so if there were a reference implementation that
included
all the required or plausible arithmetic and non-arithmetic operations
that are
anticipated.
