Re: Type equivalence of domains in Axiom and Aldor

Thank you Saul,

First, thank you very much for your code. Under which license is it?
Public domain, mBSD, GPL, ... ?

Unfortunately, the compiler has changed a bit.

In fact, I don't quite know how to resolve that problem.
Actually, I wonder why I don't see any line numbers here.

I guess the commands "ao" and "ai" that I find in "compile" and 
"exercise" mean something like

alias ao=aldor -fao
alias ai=aldor -G interp

Or did you use other scripts?

I wonder why you called it "Domain" and not something else? In some way 
you are right

A: Domain

then says that A is a domain. Sounds not too bad.
