We look forward to see posted julia code. Pull Requests is a great way to show your skills, whether they are accepted or not. Most of our sorting algorithms have been moved to SortingAlgorithms.jl<https://github.com/JuliaLang/SortingAlgorithms.jl>, so I would expect that it would be hard get a new algorithm accepted into base.
ODE solvers will be developed in the ODE.jl<https://github.com/JuliaLang/ODE.jl>package repository. We have just tagged version 0.1.0, and made braking changes to the API<https://github.com/JuliaLang/ODE.jl/blob/master/doc/api.md>that will be effective when the next version is released, so if anyone who has an interest in ODE solvers and APIs, could give their input, that would be fantastic. I don't understand your question about Runge Kutta formulas, but I think the guiding factor with regards to what algorithms we use is the interest of our contributors. If the algorithm is sound, well implemented, useful, and it does not fit better in one of the other packages, it will be accepted in ODE.jl Regards Ivar kl. 10:09:16 UTC+1 torsdag 13. mars 2014 skrev Niluka Piyasinghe følgende: > > Hi everyone, > > This is about ODE solver project in the GSOC ideas page.I read > https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/75 > and i want to know that i could only make algorithms based on Runge Kutta > formulas or i could any use any methods also for this project.I would like > to contact a mentor to discuss about ideas further. > > I have learned about julia over past months and I am trying to > contribute to julia before GSOC project by extending > sort.jl<https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/master/base/sort.jl> package > to support for Bucket sort and some other sorting algorithms as well.I will > post my codes in few days. > > > > Thank you! > > Niluka Piyasinghe > Department of computer engineering, > University of Peradeniya. >
