J is a modern high-performance general-purpose programming language that is ideal for complex analytic calculations and data manipulation.

Jsoftware provides an outstanding platform for financial, statistical and actuarial software development.

The concise syntax and interactive environment make it easy to experiment with ad hoc calculations, models and data analyses, permitting very short development and debugging times.

The core language is based on a small set of simple and consistent mathematical rules with powerful facilities for creating new definitions. In most cases, actuarial formulae and expressions map directly into J equivalents.

Support for conventional ODBC and OLE database access, and memory-mapped files for very large datasets, make it easy to process data in J.

A complete Windows GUI with dialog designer, built-in graphics and spreadsheet packages, and a software project manager let you wrap your application in a user-friendly interface.

J is feely available on a range of platforms and can be downloaded from: www.jsoftware.com
