this may not be the correct forum for this post, but I did notice a few posts with "APL" in the header.
I've recently taken an interest in matrix-oriented languages like APL, BQN and Uiua; in particular their capacity to deal with specific numeric/array-based problems that are difficult and/or highly inelegant using standard frameworks like COBOL+SQL, C, Java etc.
In short, what I'd like to know is if:
1\ APL is available in some form for Z/OS; and
2\ Can an APL function be compiled (or refactored to another language and then compiled) to a load module with the standard calling protocol - eg, allowing a COBOL module to call it with an array argument / pointer to array ?
note that I'm currently on holiday and don't have access to my beloved (work-provisioned) Z16 box. |
