Is the Software of High Quality?

Yes. The code author has had extensive software coding experience, which carries through to the quality of the code available from this site;

starting on Fortran with punch cards in 1970,
continuing through to 8080 assembler in 1976-77,
through to C/C++ in the 1990's at a campus environment in Austin, Texas for a US$10 Billion/year company with 300 other professional programmers. This software engineering facility practiced state of the art methodology, code checking, and procedures on all software. The ANSI-C code written by the author has to compile without change on MS-DOS, MS-Windows, VAX/VMS, and SunOS (Unix) platforms, so software portability is a particular strength.

All code available here is EXACTLY the same code on which both the Plug-Ins and the Window Program are built. That is; there is only ONE code base and it is shared among all products. What that means to you is: the code is fully tested, debugged, commercial, and if you can calculate something in the Windows program, then you can do the same with the source code.

All code is tested for successful compilation and linking on Unix (Linux) with the widely available Gnu 'gcc' compiler.

Example Code

Have a look an example of the code quality. All code is FULLY documented, and highly structured.

What Support will I receive?

Apart form receiving example test code and Makefiles, email support is available until you can get the test code to compile. Here is what one customer had to say about the support level.

As expected, I was reluctant to hand over my credit card info
before being fully confident with the Erlang software and support.
Robert was quick to reply to my emails, answered all my
questions in great detail and even offered some sample code.
In short, he went the extra mile to ensure my entire satisfaction.
I recommend anyone looking to obtain Erlang-related software to
look no further than Robert Clark.

Free Demo Kit

A free demo kit has been prepared that allows you to test two things:

1. Will the source code from this site compile on my computer?
The demo kit includes a small, non-windows, demo program that you can compile, link, and run on your target computer. If this demo program builds OK, then so will the source code modules available from this site.

2. Will my computer support the full range of Erlang calculations?
Some internal calculations in the full Erlang source code require the extra range of 'long double' data types. When you run the demo program, it will print a report that advises if your compiler supports the required range.
