Just wanted to say a big thanks to everyone in the NumPy community who has commented on this topic - it's given us a lot to think about and a lot of good ideas to work into the design! Best regards, Mike. On 4 January 2013 14:29, Mike Anderson wrote: > Hello all, > >

[Numpy-discussion] Insights / lessons learned from NumPy design

2013-01-03 Thread Mike Anderson
Hello all, In the Clojure community there has been some discussion about creating a common matrix maths library / API. Currently there are a few different fledgeling matrix libraries in Clojure, so it seemed like a worthwhile effort to unify them and have a common base on which to build on. NumPy
