A CD-ROM containing these documents in Adobe Acrobat is also included with this filing for the Commission's convenience in posting to the E-library. per the Commission's rules under 18 CFR §385.602 (c)(ii), HG&E is also hereby filing an original and eight copies of the Explanatory Statement supporting the Settlement. Figures 1 and 3 of the Settlement contain detailed design drawings of the Project referenced above and contain Critical Energy Infrastructure Information ("CEIl"), pursuant to Section 388.113 of the Commission's Regulations, as described in the Commission's Order No. 630. Therefore, pursuant to Section 388.112 of the Commission's Regulations, HG&E requests that Figures 1 and 3 be protected as CEIl. Accordingly, HG&E is providing herewith an original and two (2) copies of this cover letter with the CEll materials in a sealed envelope, and is providing an original and eight copies of this letter and a public version of the Settlement, with a sheet attached only referencing the CEIl materials where Figures 1 and 3 would be inserted. The Settlement addresses issues presented in pending requests for rehearing of the Commission's August 20, 1999, "Order Issuing New License and Denying Competing Jnofflclal FERC-Generated PDF of 20040315-0078 Received by FERC OSEC 03/12/2004 in Docket#: P-2004-000 Magalie Roman Salas March 12, 2004 Proiect No. 2004. Offer of Settlement (Public Version) Pa~e 2 Application,''| for this Project. The Settlement is being filed jointly by HG&E, U.S. Department of the Interior, through U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ("FWS"); U.S. Department of Commerce, National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, National Marine Fisheries Service ("NOAA Fisheries"); Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Department of Environmental Protection ("MADEP"); Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Division of Fisheries and Wildlife; Trout Unlimited; Connecticut River Watershed Council; and the Town of South Hadley, Massachusetts (referred to herein jointly as "Settling Parties"). This Settlement is uncontested; all key parties to the relicensing proceeding -- with the exception of MADEP -- have signed the Settlement. HG&E expects MADEP's signature page within the next few days and will file MADEP's signature page with the Commission as a supplement to the Settlement upon receipt. The Settlement is intended to resolve pending issues with respect to the operation and maintenance of the Project sufficient for those Settling Parties that filed requests for rehearing of the 1999 License Order to withdraw their respective requests once Commission approval of the Settlement is final and no longer subject to appeal. However, as discussed in the "Accordingly" clause and explained in detail in Section 2.4 of the Settlement, the Settling Parties request that the Commission defer issuance of such an order approving the Settlement until NOAA Fisheries issues a Biological Opinion based on the Settlement and withdraws the August 2000 Biological Opinion, and the Settling Parties complete the procedures set forth in Section 2.4. Accordingly, as explained in the Settlement, the Settling Parties request that after the Commission has been notified that the Biological Opinion has been issued and that the Settlement is not to be reopened, the Commission then issue an order approving this Settlement and incorporating the terms and conditions therein into modified license articles for this Project, without material change or modification. Proposed Settlement License Articles are included with this filing in Appendix A for the Commission's convenience. The Settling Parties have worked very diligently and cooperatively to reach agreement on a numerous complex and challenging issues. HG&E deeply appreciates the conscientious efforts of the parties and the patience and support &the Commission staff during the Settlement process. If there are any questions concerning this filing, please do not hesitate to contact me at (413) 536-9340. Sincerely, Paul S.

It is an array language, with many func- tions to manipulate multidimensional arrays. R also has multidimensional arrays, but far fewer functions to work with them. In R there are no scalars, there are vectors of length one. For a vector x in R we have dim(x) equal to NULL and length(x)>0. For an array, including a matrix, we have length(dim(x))>0.

This has two parts: to serve APL programmers, and to introduce APL to others. Printing Vector for the last twenty years has addressed the first part, though I see plenty more to do for working programmers – we publish so little on APL2, for example. But it does little to introduce APL to outsiders. If you’ve used the Web to explore a new programming language in the last few years, you will have had an experience hard to match with APL. Languages and technologies such as JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, ASP.NET and MySQL offer online reference material, tutorials and user forums.

    APL (programming language) 1 APL (programming language) APL Paradigm array, functional, structured, modular Appeared in 1964 Designed by Kenneth E. Iverson Developer Kenneth E. Iverson Typing discipline dynamic Major implementations IBM APL2, Dyalog APL, APL2000, Sharp APL, APLX Dialects A+, Dyalog APL, APLNext Influenced by mathematical notation [1] [2] [3] [4] Influenced J, K, Mathematica, MATLAB, Nial, PPL, Q APL (named after the book A Programming Language)[5] is an interactive array-oriented language and integrated development environment which is available from a number of commercial and non-commercial vendors[6] and for most computer platforms.[7] It is based on a mathematical notation developed by Kenneth E. Iverson. APL has a combination of unique and relatively uncommon features that appeal to programmers and make it a productive programming language:[8] • It is concise, using symbols rather than words and applying functions to entire arrays without using explicit loops. • It is solution focused, emphasizing the expression of algorithms independently of machine architecture or operating system. • It has just one simple, consistent, and recursive precedence rule: the right argument of a function is the result of the entire expression to its right. • It facilitates problem solving at a high level of abstraction. APL is used in scientific,[9] actuarial,[8] statistical,[10] and financial applications where it is used by practitioners for their own work and by programmers to develop commercial applications. It was an important influence on the development of spreadsheets, functional programming,[11] and computer math packages.[3] It has also inspired several other programming languages.[1] [2] [4] It is also associated with rapid and lightweight development projects in volatile business environments.[12] History The first incarnation of what was later to be the APL programming language was published and formalized in A Programming Language,[5] a book describing a notation invented in 1957 by Kenneth E.
