This is definitely a scientific paper. Pretty much no scientific paper comes with source code and the majority of scientific papers are not reproducible without an entire university department of resources anyway.
- Aissen 9y ago> Pretty much no scientific paper comes with source code Are we blindly accepting this as science now ?
- voxl 9y agoYes? Sorry you've been out of the loop so long but science doesn't cater to your idealistic ideas of what it ought to be.
- gcp 9y ago...and this attitude causes quite a bit of them to not be reproducible even when people try with the same resources.
- tdb7893 9y agoMy main thing about source code and scientific papers is that it would just be so easy to release the source code along with the paper. Even if people don't reproduce work source code would often help to understand it as often I'm a little unclear on implementation details, which source code would be able to greatly clarify.
