APLX Server Editions, and 64-bit implementations, > are also now available. > > You can download free-of-charge evaluation copies of APLX Version 5 from the > MicroAPL website http://www.microapl.co.uk/apl. > > This is a quick summary of the new features introduced in Version 5 (see > http://www.microapl.co.uk/apl/aplxv5.html for further details): > > * Performance Profiling > > Performance profiling can be used to find out which parts of your APL code > take the most time to execute, or are executed most often, and so helps you > to determine which functions to concentrate on when optimising performance. > You can view the performance data in a number of different ways, and easily > 'drill down' to get more detail on exactly where execution time is spent. > APLX Version 5 introduces a very easy-to-use menu-based profiling facility, > or, for more detailed control, a new system function for profiling. The > results are available in tables, in graphical form, and as a detailed web > page report > > * Function, Workspace and Text Comparison > > * A new Scrapbook and Idiom facility, to help you re-use code snippets and > APL idioms. > > * 'Mixins', an innovative extension to the object-oriented language features > introduced in APLX v4. > > Mixins allow you to extend your user-defined classes so that, at run-time, > they dynamically 'mix in' functionality (i.e. methods and properties, and > perhaps events) from one or more other classes; these can be internal > (user-defined, and written in APL), or external (.Net, Java, Ruby etc, or a > built-in APLX system class). > > * New external class interface: R Statistical Software. > > R is an open-source language and set of packages aimed principally at > statistical analysis. It includes a huge library of pre-written statistical > and mathematical routines, which can be accessed immediately and very > conveniently from APLX. It also includes mathematically-oriented graphing > facilities, and support for complex numbers. > > * New Primitive Functions: Unique, Union, Intersection, Stop, Left, Pass, > Right, and Not Match. > > * XML Conversion Facilities > > * Support for SVG Graphics > > * Larger component files. > > We hope that you will find like the new features, and look forward to hearing > what you would like to see in APLX Version 6. > > The MicroAPL Team > > ==================================================================== > > You are receiving this e-mail because you have expressed interest in MicroAPL > products in the past. > > If you do not wish to receive information about MicroAPL products and > services, please accept our apologies for having disturbed you.
