Message-ID: <1040@gould9.UUCP> Date: Sat, 21-Feb-87 11:52:38 EST Article-I.D.: gould9.1040 Posted: Sat Feb 21 11:52:38 1987 Date-Received: Sun, 22-Feb-87 03:23:17 EST Organization: Western Software Technology, Vista, CA Lines: 15 I was reading the latest edition of the Pascal report, trying to figure out what the ISO Level 1 spec is, when I came across the famous conformant arrays. It gets about 2 pages of incomprehensible prose. The closest I could come is that a conformant array is a parameter in which the type of the element is fixed, but the upper and lower bounds are implicit parameters. If anyone understands this, could they clue me in? -- Joel West MCI Mail: 282-8879 Western Software Technology, POB 2733, Vista, CA 92083 {cbosgd, ihnp4, pyramid, sdcsvax, ucla-cs} !gould9!joel joel%gould9.uucp@NOSC.ARPA
