It would be really interesting to organize a bit the scientific packages so that we have one nice library to look for. Serge if you have some code please package it.
Yes sure !
Anyone is aware of any Smalltalk code/project that might be used for a scientific library for Smalltalk. At the moment, there is a lot of fragmentation:
- DHBNumerical (MIT): http://www.squeaksource.com/DHBNumerical.html
- StMath (licence unknown):
http://live.exept.de/doc/online/english/programming/goody_stmath.html
- MathComplex and MathQuaternion (MIT): http://www.squeaksource.com/Complex.html
- Smallapack (MIT): http://www.squeaksource.com/Smallapack.html
Who is willing to contribue and in what domain (numerical analysis, matrix, probability distribution, ...) ?
Maybe we can propose a GSOC project for a student ?
why not now we should start to - define a configurationOf for DHB - produce more tests Right now they are all in one class - may be produce some simple doc. I should reread the book (I read it in draft at least 5 times).
