well I saw the new thrends aka Quad-XML, Quad-JSON, Quad-FFT and so on
but I think thoses will never be used in real life or quite seldom.
I really think that Juergen should be looking at
:if/:elseif/:else/:endif
:for var :in array
loop
:endfor
:while condition:
loop
:endwhile
:do
loop
:until condition
this will eases newcommers to the language.
I know that APL goal is to do a whole "program" in one or two lines of code...
but the language must accomodate newcommers.
I asked for that several years ago (may me 8 or 10 years)
Juergen ansewered at that time "this can be done" but I wont yet
well my principal next improvements wish list is if/for/while/do_until
my real though,
Xtian.
