Footnotes

... program^3.1^3.1: Type it in and comprehend the comments. I took three weeks of spare time.
... BLK\_SIZE.^3.2^3.2: The block size is 512 for a VMatrix. This allows a 32 meg memory buffer
... index.^5.1^5.1: It appears a bit heavy handed with all of the casts to long ints, but there were some problems of improper type promotion encountered during development.
... vdoub.^5.2^5.2: This ability to operate on the hdr of vdoub clarified the meaning of inheritance for me since a VMatrix is really just a virtual vector with some extra functionality. It also shows why the hdr must be protected rather than private in vdoub.
... functions.^5.3^5.3: If you force a zero division in this routine, VAX CC will cause a print of the function call sequence to the error output stream
... function.^6.1^6.1: I cannot see a reason for directly allocating another MStack other than Dispatch, since the matrix functions push their results onto Dispatch. Maybe someone with a parallel processor would want several independent stacks, but the rest of the program would have to be rewritten. The vmm system would need to be scrapped too. It's clear YAMP is a PC program
... (Tran(X)*X).DispalayMat();.^6.2^6.2: By the way, just what is this, a statement or a function call?
... matrix.^7.1^7.1: This is one of my disappointments with C++. I would have preferred to overload a postfix operator, say `, for the transpose, but such an operator does not exist in C++. So what, I never intended to write APL.
... axes.^9.1^9.1: This is an example of the design by differences concept that is making C++ so popular
... object.^D.1^D.1: My Christmas present from my wife was the time to do this over the holiday vacation.
