For floating point numbers we rely on C++ semantics. We would need a longer discussion; there are specific issues related to floating point numbers (such as division by zero etc)...

The least intrusive way forward is to replicate the computation for denominators and construct a condition for a filter placed before the computation. For example, the rule for relation `A`...

I can think of various ways to implement it: 1) Silent fail and continue with special domain values (i.e. NaN). That would require only few changes to the code base....

We cannot change too much the existing mechanisms because some users need the current interface. Hence, we can only extend the current mechanism so that we have downward compatibility. I...

It seems something went wrong with the linking. Could you resolve it?

Yes - indeed. The synthesiser could be smarter here. Instead of consulting the symbol table, it could use the string in verbatim. Would you like to change the synthesiser accordingly?...

This change would affect STRING_COMPARE, MINMAX_SYMBOL, CONV_FROM_STRING, STRLEN, CAT, SUBSTR, MATCH and CONTAIN.

It is possible and we had it working in the past. Most likely, this is related to our latest record table that uses lock-free data structures and requires OpenMP. If...

Thanks for doing all the research! It might be best to update the documentation so that we make the users install the brew's clang compiler so that we have clang...

Thinking out loudly - perhaps we should make the build fail if we don't discover a C++ compiler without OpenMP. Again, significant performance penalities are the consequence without OpenMP.
