Hi,
I'm looking for some basic matrix/vector operations and other
numeric stuff.
I spent quite a lot time in reading through the mir
documentation, but i kinda miss the bigger picture. I'm not a
Python user btw. (I know C,C++,C#,Matlab..).
I have also looked at the documentation of the lubeck package.
What i have seen right now reminds me of the saying "Real
programmers can write FORTRAN in any language".
Is there a type to do matrix operations with nice syntax (e.g.
using * operator for multiplication)?
I do have all that for my own use. I've never bothered to turn it
into something others could use because I love the garbage
collector, but that's a turnoff for others. But I'm more than
happy to share if you're really interested. I'm also working on
an R -> D compiler, but it's not helpful at this point.
It wouldn't take much to create a simple wrapper over mir/lubeck
to do operator overloading. This is low-hanging fruit for someone
that wants to contribute to the language. Until I win the
lottery, I won't have time to do it myself.
