Rick Klopp has pointed out that spinodal is misspelt as spinoidal in my posting of the back cover of my new cellular automata book. he's right and unfortunately, the name is misspelt in the book as well. i typed the word spinoidal the way i've pronounced it since i first studied thermodynamics at the polytechnic institute of brooklyn [i guess that spending the last 20+ years in the cornfields of illinois hasn't diminished my new york accent] but note that even though the name is incorrect, the spinodal program is correct. thanks for pointing it out, Rick. we'll correct it for the second printing of the book. -richard- -- "if you're not programming functionally, then you're programming dysfunctionally" ==== [MESSAGE SEPARATOR] ====
