I concur, first rate work and good use of the language.

- pmiller2 8y agoI think this is great and interesting, but do CL compilers optimize numerical code anywhere near as well as Fortran compilers?
- gumby 8y agoI would be surprised if so for vector arithmetic given the opportunities for modern FORTRAN to tell the compiler what to do. OTOH the whole point of metasyntactic macrology and the function object abstractions is to permit such things. But modern FORTRAN compilers are very good at what FORTRAN is good for. The MACLISP compiler was as good and in some cases better than its contemporary FORTRAN competition. But FORTRAN tech has moved on since then.
