Has anyone written anything on the use of FP (e.g. point free style) in linear algebra problems? -- Dr Jon D Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com/products/?e

I'm not sure how relevant this is to you, but John Backus wrote foundationally on it and related topics. http://www.stanford.edu/class/cs242/readings/backus.pdf "Can Programming Be Liberated from the von Neumann Style?" It's an excellent read, regardless. -- Denis
