Greetings-

I'll admit I'm not that familiar with the available literature on APL,
but Chaitin's _Physics in APL2_ was pretty hard to obtain, so I thought
I'd share a scan:

<http://vze26m98.net/j-lang/chaitin-1986.pdf>

Let me know if problems with the file.

Enjoy,

Charles

Dear Charles,

I just downloaded the pdf version of Chaitain's APL2 book on physics.
Very interesting. Do you know other APL books of the same type (but not
necessarily in physics) that might be availabe on pdf?

Kind Regards

Guy Larocque

Hi Guy-

I'm guess you might mean "applied-APL" when you say "same type"?

One that comes to mind, although in J, not APL, is Cliff Reiter's
_Fractals and Visualization in J_:

Hi Charles,

Yes, I meant "applied-APL".
