A new addition, but an effective one. A typical characteristic of FormulaOne is the ease with which one can transpose the literal (English) text of the constraints into code: |

Not many (?) languages know this ease of coding. This is chiefly due to the implementation in FormulaOne of the (mathematical) injection -- represented by an indexed array with distinctive elements, the use of relations, and the use of unknown indices. Cf. Example 2. |
