I've been lurking and waiting/expecting the answer to this question to become obvious -- so far nothing. Via a forgotten tortuous search for means which could reduce software errors via some formal methods, perhaps transforming conventional imperative style syntax, I came upon 'Joy'. Q -Can concatenative languages substantially help in building 'program correctness' ? If not, what do they offer that's special ? I'm also investigating: http://www.rebelscience.org/Cosas/components.htm # COSA is based on the premise that the # primary reason that computer programs are unreliable is the # age-old practice of using the algorithm as the basis of software # construction. Switch to a synchronous, signal-based model # and the problem will disappear. Perhaps COSA too is a futile investigation ? Thanks for any info, == Chris Glur. PS. I received, what I only later realised was on 'off group' post re. Cat 0.10.4 Release now with Graphics I've been resisting M$loth controlling IT & my life, and now gmail [google having similarly diverted/taken-over Usenet] from where I've registed this mail-list, has so much deliberate eye-candy distraction, that when I see "Cat 0.10.4 Release now with Graphics", I must assume it's from the group and not an individual. Besides normally, cat related queries should be posted to the group ?
