[oak perl] PDL, the Perl analogue to MATLAB

[Kester Allen]

Hi All--

The PDL module I mentioned last night is worth checking out, if you're
interested in graphics or fast manipulation of big numeric matricies. 
You can easily install it with 'cpan PDL' (it'll take a while) on a
linux or Mac box; I'm not sure how the install goes on Windows.

You can invoke the PDL shell "perldl" and run some great demos with a few lines:
% perldl
perldl> demo

    % perldl
    % demo
    % demo 3d

The project's webpage is at: http://pdl.perl.org/

Just FYI.
