John M. Dlugosz and I have both replied to whiteringmoon's query, so I don't think anyone else need to. (If he's genuine, we don't want to bombard him with multiple replies, and if not, let's not give out too much spambait.) -- Email and shopping with the feelgood factor! 55% of income to good causes. http://www.ippimail.com

But because it is a common language used by a large number of people, and it's intent of meaning is constant it may be a perfect language. From what I understand about computer languages is this that they are based on a binary language consisting of zero and one and with thoes two numbers all the language that exists, the instructions that the computer will follow so that it can communicate with every other computer. Again thank you both for answering my questions. I'm going to read the information and add it the list of languages. WR

I've identified a few more issues while refactoring the text across all the synopses, but I'm just noting everything in my document. Not enough discussion going on to post them all. My main creative effort is in studying type systems, and musing over what it would be like to have Perl 6's type system to be F-bounds specified subtyping. According to Anthony Simons, no one has ever completely implemented it before. I think Perl is a language that =could= do it, with its mixture of helpful typing and lax non-typing. Can't get a strict subtype defined properly? Forget about it and just use Any. --John

I don't mean to sound stupid in asking this. But could you explain what it is that I am looking at here? WR
