NAME
pdldelta - PDL changes between V1.0 and V2.0
DESCRIPTION
This file is an attempt to list the major user-visible changes between PDL versions 1.0 and 2.0.
Core Changes
Piddles are not hashes any more:
$a = zeroes 10,10;
$$a{FOO} = "bar"doesn't work. They are currently scalar references (to opaque C structures in finer terms) because of speed as well as syntactic issues. If you want to have a hash, use
$a->hdr()which returns a reference to an anonymous hash. (XXX)
