I have been looking over the new git repos for J. Great job guys. I see the engine source already has over 100 stars. Who knew J code would be so popular. Once people get a chance to appreciate the high quality of these repos J may attract a new group of users and fans. Cheers Sent from my i

I have been kicking around the latest beta and have run into some things that might be useful for others to try. 1. I use the package manager verb jpkg directly in jconsole. I get connection refusal errors when attempting to update in 8.07d while it works just fine in 8.06 2. The Fourier trans

I have tried out this addon with the latest beta. It works well for 64 bit integers and floats. Other numpy numerical data types work but produce what you expect when sampling memory regions. I haven’t managed to get simple character arrays to work. Also numpy complex types are not j complex t

Encouraging the use of J from Python is a welcome. If people are really interested in exploring options take a look at Martin Sauer’s integration of J into Jupyter notebooks. https://github.com/martin-saurer/jkernel In many ways notebooks are an ideal lab environment. I think it would serve the

I am wondering if there is going to be more formal support of Jupyter notebooks going forward. I know Martin put together a J bundle to demonstrate this so it can be done. I feel it would significantly broaden J's user base if it was easy to plug J into Jupyter. It would be a real plus to get J

I second Jose's feelings about quoted code. It's an indicator that something is wrong with a language's syntax or reflection facilities. If j was redesigned today I suspect the need for quoted code (mostly single line explicits) would be dropped. I also suspect the entire notion of a "line of co
