Specialises In (based on submitted proposals)
Jay has spent the last 18 years working on the implementation of programming languages, from Java JIT compilers and virtual machines to traditional compilers and debuggers for C and C++. For the last 5 years he has brought this expertise to APL, helping to optimise Dyalog's APL interpreter, implement new language features, and trying to bring ahead-of-time compilation to a traditionally interpreted language.

keyboard_arrow_downArray Oriented Functional Programming with Dyalog
480 Mins
Workshop
Beginner
Dyalog is a modern, array-first, multi-paradigm programming language, which supports functional, object-oriented and imperative programming based on an APL language kernel. During the morning and early afternoon, Dyalog's functional language guru John Scholes will introduce the fundamentals of functional programming in APL. At the end of the day, Dyalog CTO Morten Kromberg will round off with an application development session, showing how a simple web application with a HTML5/JS front-end and a RESTful web service can be used to deliver the power of APL to end users, or as embeddable components for other application tools. The "hands on" sections of the workshop can be followed under Mac OS X, Linux, or Microsoft Windows.
