SciLua: Scientific Computing with LuaJIT
- eggy 8y agoI have been using Terra lately as a C replacement for technical work, but SciLua seems to be a great way to stay with Lua for speed in these types of applications. I am curious if it is going to become faster compared to Julia at the 3 of 8 tests where Julia was faster.
- pull_my_finger 8y agoHow do you like Terra? Have you checked out Palleen or Titan?
- eggy 8y agoI've looked at Palleen, but I haven't done anything with it yet. I am happy with Terra for now. Terra and Lua make a great combination, and mesh well. I am just trying to work them into my tasks.
- wodenokoto 8y agoIs luaJIT a competitor to Julia, in the sense that you can write high-level code, without the need to call bits of compiled C / Fortran My impression was that Lua at least was in the Python class of scientific computing, by needing to refer to optimized, precompiled libraries.
