Re: [Gretl-users] Python and Gretl

Jack said "...It'd be inordinately cool to be able to do something like <hansl> capsule["foo"] = 3 capsule["bar"] = "WOW!" capsule["baz"] = mnormal(20,4) foreign language=Octave --import=capsule --export=chest temp = capsule.foo + 1 chest.blip = temp end foreign scalar whatever = chest["blip"] </hansl> In other words, use the fact that most of our foreign correspondents also have associative arrays to define the idea of a wrapper structure to deal with the import/export problems. Ideally, this would have to be done in RAM (shared memory, perhaps?), but I could live with temporary files. What do you guys think?" I agree this would be way cool! PS
