Inthane,

MUMPS (as I know it) is an interpreted language that runs on what might
still be referred to as a "main frame" system.  I know of no compiler to
generate a stand-alone executable file from MUMPS code that could be run in 
the Microsoft Windows environment.

If anybody knows of one, I would be interested in hearing about it.

bob,
since your familiar with it, would it be useful still to new programmers and 
do you think it is a "stand the test of time" language?
if you feel it is, would you be willing to do a fruit basket demo in it so I 
can put it up on the fbd site for reference?
if you wish to, there is a downloadable file with the criteria for the demo 
project on the site at:

Yes, I think you are right -- there are a lot of general purpose languages 
out there lately.  That is curious.  It used to be languages were
application specific -- fortran (formula translation) for engineers,
snobol
for string and list processing, a few functional languages for highly
specialized recursive apps, apl for obfuscated math (sorry, apl read right 
to left and was painfully terse and tool a while getting used to), cobol
for

people who wanted to program database apps in english *smile*, web
programming or markup languages for the net when it emerged, and dozens
more -- when I was working they had application oriented languages (which
they called AOL's) for use on the phone system software, I think with the 
explosion of AOL's there was a desire to write a general purpose language
that could do everything.  Then smalltalk and eiffel and c++ et al came
along and then java and c#, and extensions to vb and perl/php to do
OO-like
designs, and python and ruby and whatever else...
My fingers are getting tired *smile*
So there is many to one and one to many and this keeps hoards of
programmers

employed as they try to grab the coolest features for their
projects...*smile*
I think it's interesting that python is indentation sensitive.  Sounds
like
a pain for blind programmers that don't look at indentation, but I also
think it is a plus for those same programmers as it makes for code that
can
be shared with sighted programmers.

Hi,

I always thought of that other editor as: type vi at the command prompt
and
very little will change.

The one thing that I'm a bit curious about these days is why the sudden
explosion of new languages?  For the longest time, a platform had its
primary language, UNIX, GNU/Linux and DOS used C, Macintosh had some
dialect
of Pascal and AppleEvents, mainframes had Fortran and COBOL, VMS had PL/I. There were also a lot of narrowly focused languages like Lisp for AI work, 
DB2 for databases, JCL for making your mainframe happy, etc.

In the last few years, though, I see an increasingly large number of
general
purpose languages arriving on the scene (Ruby, Python, Lua, C#, J#, Java
and
a bunch more) and I can't entirely understand why so many people are
investing so much time and money in programming languages.

Hey Chris -- I never heard that historical vignette about emacs -- thanks
for the flashback! I remember that time period but at the time I was using 
"that other editor", vi, but emacs definitely was a major presence.  It's
funny but it is easy to lapse into nostalgia over cool projects that we
were
working on back then, especially if the software got popular and used by a 
lot of people, but in the corporate world with management shooting down
projects like ducks, they used to tell people not to get emotionally
attached to projects, which a lot of people did, both guys and gals, so
the
dynamics were crazy -- but my response to the recommendation not to get
attached to a project was that after picking bits for 60 hours a week for
months or years on a piece of software, and seeing it trashed, it really
wasn't possible to dissociate from a project totally -- you needed to like 
the project in order to put that much effort into it, but projects came
and
went so fast you soon learned to be mercenary.
I think the 80s and 90s were pivotal in computer science though, so small
bit-picking projects such as DOS for example (not that I ever worked on
DOS)

exploded into phenomena like Microsoft and windows that took over the
world,

and the stuff we all did on C++ back in the 80s and 90s also was pivotal,
and when it started getting popular everyone was trying to jump onto it.
I
suppose times are similar now, but not so much as in the 80s and 90s -- for 
all those currently working in the industry, is that true?  My impression
is

that projects are smaller and more numerous and come and go more quickly.
Happy hacking all!

Of course, you are correct I wasn't referring to a GUI for programming in
Lisp as, back in those days, emacs was the Lisp programming environment
for
Lisp hacking and virtually all of those guys agreed upon it as the best
solution.  Goz wrote the first emacs in some strange system that was
difficult and even more difficult to modify.  Stallman and the others
agreed
that Lisp was the perfect language for making editors and other tools like 
them and thus was born the emacs we all know and love.  When Goz went off
to
commercialize all of the cool system tools made around the AI lab in those days, he took the Lisp version and called it UniPress emacs. Stallman and the others founding Project GNU gave distributed the Lisp based one as GNU 
emacs.

Getting all nostalgic again: back in those years UniPress ran a monthly
full
page advert in UNIX World with a whole bunch of heads in shadow on a grey
background with quotes on why they preferred Gosmacs.  At FSF, we took a
bit
of our fundraising budget and got photos of a big chunk of the computer
science pantheon (including Minsky, McCarthy, Guy Steele, Hal Abelson,
Gerry
Sussman, Rodney Brooks, Patrick Winston, Knuth, Bob Boyer and others whom
I
cannot think of with my caffeine mg to hour ratio so dangerously low) and, 
arranged exactly like their ad but with the text, "GNU Emacs Users Aren't
Afraid to Show Our Faces," and, under each giant of the field a quote
praising both emacs and another extolling project GNU or the concept of
free
software.

We believe we won the day when Unipress had a totally different ad the
following month saying something about how one can never know what they
may
get if they use a program that includes the source.  We fired back with a
one luminary per month advertisement series saying exactly why the GNU
versions were more stable, more secure and, of course, you don't have to
wait for some programmers in New Jersey to fix bugs because you already
have
the source and can do it yourself.  In those years, the proportion of
people
who read UNIX World who were also programmers of some sort was pretty
huge.

Sina, I know you aren't fond of emacs but, keep in mind, this debate was
going on about a decade before you were born and anything that even
approached a integrated development environment was radically cool.  Over
that decade, we added so much like full integration with lots of
languages,
gdb and so many other cool things that people take entirely for granted
these days.  It was a real exciting time to be around the lab, around GNU
and, if one had an interest in programming tools, I doubt any other point
in
space time (except maybe at Parc Place when Adele was in charge) could
even
give the slightest indication of what it felt like.  Knowing you as well
as
I do, I think you would have felt as though you had stumbled into Xanadu
if,
at 21 years old, you were like many of the other guys your age who made
that
stuff happen in the lab back then.

I'll go start the history/mid-life crisis list later today.

No one really remembers Symbolics or Goz and that crowd nor does anyone

Again, I'm sorry for the disagreement, but there are several flaws in
this explanation. I've attempted to correct them below.

The standard byte's signed values are -127 to 127, not -128 to 127 ...
it's being picky, but this is extremely important and the source of
90% of most security flaws today.

A standard word is a misnomer. This assumes a two byte word which is
only true on 16-bit architecture. A word can be 16 bits, 32-bits, or
even
11 bits
in some platforms ... it just depends. A double word can be 32 bits,
but it can also be 16 bits in some platforms or not even supported in
others, so there is no standard here.

However, using twos complement, I must again clarrify the minimum and
maximum of a 16 bit value, since it is not -32768 to 32767, I'm
afraid, but is instead -32767 to 32767

As for a 32 bit value, the minimum and maximum are as follows.

Using twos complement, the signed minimum and maximum of a 32-bit
integer are -2147483647 to 2147483647 , and the minimum and maximum of
an unsigned
32 bit integer are 0 to 4294967295

Hope this clears things up.

Hi Listers,

As I see it, things have become a little muddled here, both in James's
message and in Sina's reply.

The standard byte is still 8 bits, containing unsigned values of 0 to
255 and signed values of -128 to +127.

The word contains 16 bits, with unsigned values of 0 to 65535, and
signed values of -32768 to +32767.

The double word contains 32 bits, with very large values possible.
Unsigned, 0 to 4 thousand millions, and signed values  from -2
thousand millions to + 2 thousand millions, more or less.

I hope I've got my thinking straight on that, and haven't caused
further confusion.

A few things. big endian  versus little endian is arbritrary, so it's
not a fact with respect to storage.

More importantly, the minimum and maximum of a signed 32 bit integer
is not
-65535 to 65535, it's actually -32767 to 32767

If it is signed, then it is 0 to 65535

At the end of the day, you only have 2^16 permutations of 16 bits in a
binary system; thus, you have a maximum of 65536 positions, and so you
have half as much capacity if you are using twos complement to allow
for both negative numbers and the concept of 0.

Hope this helps

Yes, Hexidecimal numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D,
E, F for a total of 16 possible digit values.

As stated before, this is much more convenient for the computer as
16 is an
even power of 2 and computers actually use binary, 0 and 1. The
hexidecimal representation is actually easier for humans to read than
binary.
Hexidecimal digits are grouped into groups of 2 for a total of 16 x
16 or
256 possible values. This is a standard byte. Before unicode, a single
byte value was used to represent an alphanumeric character and two
bytes or a word were used to represent a 32 bit integer with values
possible from
-65535 to 65535. This explains the limit of the size of variables in
older games.

The original Intel 8086 processor had 16 bit registers. Operations for
anything larger had to be synthisized with software.

What's more, for integer values larger than 255, the least significant
pair of digits is stored first. For example, if you were looking for
the value
301 (decimal) in a game save file, you would find it represented as
23 01 in
the save file.

Since this list is about programming and not game save file hacking, I
will end my lecture here.

level.  Personally, I think it's a really valuable exercise even

if

one never actually needs to use it in a "real" program just to get

a
better understanding of what a processor "sees"

and how base 16 numbers can be turned into both instructions and

data

depending upon how the processor looks at them.

In the network edition of "Bank Street Writer" a word processing
program written entirely in assembly, that was pretty popular in

the

years before you learned to talk, I added a function called,
"DON'T_CALL_THIS."  If you did call it the program would crash as

the

instructions looked random.  If, however, you looked at the last
handful of bytes of the program as ASCII, it read "FSMITHISAWORM."
