ABSTRACT:
A class definition syntax that leverages the array and math-oriented nature of a dynamically typed array-based programming language is discussed. The present invention provides a simplified mechanism for the creation of element-wise methods. Additionally, a mechanism for defining derived classes in a dynamically typed array-based programming language using mathematical set notation and semantics is also supported.
