Package j? (Was: Join the Debian Science team)
Hello Innocent,
Welcome.
Thank you very much for your willingness to help
maintain packages.
If you happen to have the time, and are so
inclined, I humbly suggest formally packaging an
array programming language.
It's called "j"[1].
As you might imagine, array programming languages,
like j, and APL, which begat it, are great for science.
The guy who invented them won the Association for
Computing Machinery's Turing Award[2].
j's main web site says it's free[1], already
packaged3] and available under GPL3[1].
So,
Kingsley
