- CONTENTS OF VOLUME #27

- 1. It is always a real pleasure to pass on an upgraded program.
- Ironfingers Penley had bought a hard copy of a government public
- domain program of LISP written in Pascal. He converted it to
- Pascal/Z but pooped out before he got all the bugs out. He donated
- the program on Zug volume #14. Then Lanfranco Emiliani of the
- Netherlands took and de-bugged it, added some bells and whistles
- and donated it back to us. I think he has done a good job and for
- those of you who are interested in artificial intellegence, this
- is a good starting point.

- 2. Rex Buddenberg has come through for us again. This time he took
- on the public-key crypto subject. It is not complete, but he has
- started on it and for anybody who can help push out the frontiers
- they are certainly most welcome. As a relief, he has included a
- simplistic program on large formating. It is different in that
- there is provisions for a 80 column and a 132 column size printer.

- A note from Rex with the submission states:

-
- PRIME..

- prime.pas prime.com
- prime1.pas
- (random.pas from the library)
- (unit1.pas/pz from the library)
-
- PRIME was an attempt to implement the RSA data encryption
- algorithm found in Byte, Jan 83, p 198, by John Smith. Not
- everything works, so I didn't submit it all but some lessons may
- help others. See PRIME.DOC for more detail.

- The signs programs are an update of the earlier version in VOL
- 19. Output may now be routed to screen, printer or a file. The
- program also looks more like real Pascal rather than warmed over
- BASIC now. The two .com files are for 6 and 11 letters
- respectively.

- 3. CLAY CARLEY III of Spokane, Wash has written a combination useful
- utility and a CPM function tutorial. His program will erase a file
- in a user friendly way and uses functions calls to do a lot of its
- work, which is educational for you CPM'ers.

- 4. Greg Acland wrote some interesting comments to this library file so
- for those who are interested in random numbers better check this out.

- RNDKNUTH.LIB

- 5. The teachers in Sacramento, Ca were using this program for their
- students but I never had time to see if it would run, as is, but I
- didn+'t want this to go to waste. So I am including it for anyone
- who would like to do it as a project. There is a copyright release
- by the authors.
-
- BIOSIN.PAS
-
- 6. Ray Penley, bless his iron-fingers, has upgraded his student
- programs. Read TUTOR.PRN to get some excellent pointers and
- instructions on programing.
