Any paradigm can be implemented in any language, provided that the implementor has sufficient understanding of both. Because I think it willbe easy and I want to show off I am going to present a Perl framework for a neural network system, later in this message, simulating simultaneity by providing time slices to all nodes completely at random, and deferring implementation of the connections and activity of each node. Nah, I'll provide a stub that attempts to average numbers. Here goes: see attachment. pipe it through less to see the nodes reach a consensus, sort of. perl perlNN.pl | less Brian, does this match the sort of thing you were doing in C++? -- david nicol Ralph Nader eats cats
