:-) true J is after all a Turing Machine (by access) i can do anything! w/o reaching outside J though i would like to do things efficiently
That is after all the newly (re)discovered way Now i know that J's modus operandi is not being efficient it is a Tool for Thought But lacking Bit Booleans i would probably never have used APL/360 for my undergrad thesis Another J lack but i digress All i want is to access SMALL floats with J finesse ~greg heil https//picsrp.github.io -- from: Raul Miller <rauldmil...@gmail.com> to: Source forum <sou...@jsoftware.com> date: May 26, 2021, 9:26 AM subject: Re: [Jsource] Expanding Openmp parallel usage within j That's pretty vague. >I mean, you already have access using the 15!: foreigns, but presumably you >had something more specific in mind? -- Raul -- from: greg heil <ghei...@gmail.com> to: Source forum <sou...@jsoftware.com> date: May 26, 2021, 8:36 AM subject: Re: [Jsource] Expanding Openmp parallel usage within j Not that this is Short At all! J does not even recognize 16 bit entities (outside unicode) but it would be Very Sweet to have access to the BFloat16 hiding in avx ~greg heil https//picsrp.github.io -- from: Eric Iverson <eric.b.iver...@gmail.com> to: Source forum <sou...@jsoftware.com> date: May 26, 2021, 7:22 AM subject: Re: [Jsource] Expanding Openmp parallel usage within j >No particular low hanging fruit.
