Greetings! In getting maxima working on gcl 2.7.0, I came across the
following strangeness:
MAXIMA> (eq 'array 'lisp::array)
NIL
(defmacro arraycall (ign array &rest dims) ign
`(aref ,array . ,dims))
This slows down array referencing enormously, at least when compiled
with GCL, and I suspect others too. What would be the matter with
importing 'array into 'maxima, and then
(defmacro arraycall (ign array &rest dims) ign
`(aref (the ,ign ,array) . ,dims))
???
Take care,
