I've made some changes to the addition (+) operator in Frink. It's entirely likely that you'd never notice these changes (except that the code may be slightly...
First off, thanks for creating such an amazing tool! The potential for what can be done with it is truely mind boggling! I recall seeing it in passing about a...
... Thanks, Glen. Hopefully it will come a long way further soon, as Frink learns to do symbolic mathematics, too. ... Frink can handle almost any unit of...
... Ah, excellent. I was writing about this topic a little while ago, and I found an excellent resource on what's called the "relativistic rocket equation."...
There's been a flurry of new features in Frink today. One of the more interesting developments is that I've finally been able to build an experimental...
The current release of Frink fixes a significant bug that was introduced recently. This bug could occur when multiplying by zero. I had added an over-eager...
I tried to install Frink in my Nokia E61 device with the frink.jar file but the installer claimed that the jar is not acceptable. Does anyone know how to get...
... I'm not quite sure what the Java Virtual Machine on your device supports. Any information you might have about the Java implementation would help. If...
There have been several bugfixes and new features in Frink over past weeks: * Java Introspection has been improved to work around bugs in Sun's Java...
Slightly off-topic: Since 2003 or so I have installed Frink on my Nokia Communicator 9210i. This is one of the devices that indeed supports "Personal Java", as...
Success! Frink 4.00 still installs and runs on a Nokia 9210i Communicator with < 4 MB of free RAM. It takes a while (2 minutes) until the result of the first...
Yeah, well thanks a lot. I don't actually know how to update my Java implementation since it's part of the firmware and not visible. Could I just download CDC...
Hi folks, I came across a problem that I think Frink would be ideal for. However, I don't know if it has this capability or not. What I need is to describe an...
... There are perhaps two different issues in what you've discussed. I'll address them below. ... The above is all fine (assuming a suitable class definition...
Alan, Excellent points. As I was reading your thoughts, it occurred to me: Am I really asking for an array and for you to sum the specific parameters for...
... Unfortunately, it won't work right now (and will probably never work automatically) for the same reasons that we discussed before. Whether you're summing...
The latest release of Frink fixes a bug in labeled/unlabeled "break" statements to break out of loops. When adding labeled break statements, I had inadequate...

I've just released a new version of Frink that fixes foreign language translations to work again. Downloading the new version is highly recommended. (If you...
An interesting alternative to interval arithmetic is something called "affine arithmetic". It models measurements as a center value +/- a random value - which...
... Thanks very much for the references! I've had several rather lengthy e-mail discussions with people who have encountered interval arithmetic for the first...
There have been a variety of improvements to Frink, including one rather important bug. The most important bug occurred when when dividing some integer ...
Those fellows at Rolling Rock, not being content with merely brewing skunky beer, have created a clearly hoaxish ad campaign to make people believe that...
... Oops! No, it was supposed to be in there, but i had a problem in the building process. It's fixed now. I changed the way the war file was built, so...
I've made a lot of changes to Frink recently, probably too many to mention here. As always, the "what's new" file contains the most detail about all new...
Thanks for providing a fix, (and the other ingenious features of the new release, mentioned in the other posting from yesterday)! Can deploy the frink.war file...
