A lot of hard-core math libraries are written in C, C++ or Fortran (like BLAS, ATLAS and LAPACK).
So a lot of math programs in a lot of languages (like JVM languages, as well as Ruby and Python) off load a lot of the work to these C libraries. TensorFlow, NumPy, SciPy, DeepLearning4J, etc all do that. For some of the libraries in Java (like TensorFlow or DeepLearning4J) I think you can choose to either use Java, a C library, or a library that calls the GPU. = Eric MacAdie On Fri, Nov 12, 2021 at 9:22 PM Rick Van Camp <ravc0...@gmail.com> wrote: > For this reason I suspect Groovy is not a 'quantitative language' if I can > use this phrase. > > On 2021/11/12 09:14:18 Rick Van Camp wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I joined the list to learn if STEM applications exist for Groovy?
