I believe DEC's Modula-2 compiler has an extension to allow open
matrices and higher order arrays.

You could bypass the type checking by passing the address of the
array.  You'd still have to do your own indexing. This means passing
the dimensions as well.  Messy.

Perhaps a neater way is to pass a descriptor (a record containing the
address of the array, and the dimensions). I still don't see a way
around either the inefficiency of an indexing function, or the
verbosity of writing your own index computations.

Note that C (until C++) has the same problems.

Anybody have better ideas?
