Can you address me to a Lisp compiler suitable for the task and perhaps open source?Michele =It has been run on older versions of GCL, but was written forAllegro Common Lisp, which you can get free/trial version if youdont have it otherwise. There are only 3 places where MockMMA differs from the ANSI standard.1. It uses a program (errorset, I think) not in ANSI Lisp, whose useshould be conditionalized out.2. It prefers to use a lisp in which upper and lower case are different,as they are in Mathematica. That is Sin and sin are different. I thinkthis issue is also avoidable.3. I think there is some part of unique hash-coding cons that was done especially efciently in Allegro, but could be done in an ANSI versionin le consalt.You could explain what problem you have compiling (probably just to theauthor :)Regarding your other question, I think you should ask the Mathematicapeople.> I downloaded about 1 year ago MockMMA but couldnt compile it with the GNU > Lisp.

I think Ill postponeordering this book until I hear some positive reviews. =I want to t some pure complex data x (only imaginary part) to some othercomplex data, y, by a polynomial with linear least squares.y=p0 T0(x) +p1 T1(x)+...+pn Tn(x)where Ti(x) represents the ith Chebyshev polynomial.(i thought this would provide me with better numerical conditioning,since i get Vandermonde system to solve).I need real coefcients in my polynomial, so i assume p0, ..., pn and the coefcients of Ti(x) have to be real,while x is complex. I calculate coefcients with (Ax=b)With left matrix A :Re(T0(x)) Re(T1(x)) .... Re(Tn(x))Im(T0(x)) Re(T1(x)) .... Re(Tn(x))... for all xunknown coefcients are X=[p0 p1 ... pn] And right columnvector vector b :Re(y)Imag(y)... for all yEvery equation is split in real and imaginary part to make coefcientsreal.And theres my problem. This orthogonal technique works well if x is realand scaled in [0,1], since Ti(x) doesnt return very high values (only between0 and 1). But if x is complex, this property is not longer valid !e.g. T2(x)=2x^2-1 if x=1*i then T2(x)=-3In fact, this method gets every sooner illconditioned than when i dontuse Chebyshev polynomials.
