I hate with a burning passion having to manage packages myself. MATLAB comes preinstalled with everything and the kitchen sink.
- adgjlsfhk1 2y agoFair enough. It probably would make sense to have a Conda like release of Julia that comes out every year with a broad but curated selection of packages.
- stillyslalom 2y agoLong ago, I trawled through Matlab's docs to come up with a set of Julia packages matching what's build into Matlab: https://discourse.julialang.org/t/julia-for-matlab-users-club/12872/8 https://discourse.julialang.org/t/julia-for-matlab-users-clu... I don't think you'd actually want to include each of those packages in a standard distro: does the average user really need to programmatically send emails or deal with Voronoi tessellations? Probably not, but I still think there's value in a batteries-included approach, especially when working with students.
