- sevensor 2y agoWould it make sense to think of this as a compact syntax for numpy? When it comes to array operations, are there differences that go deeper than the syntax?
- eismcc 2y agoKlongPy has a lot of other features beyond pure NumPy operations (such as IPC and web server), which you could see as a kind of making use of array operations in some application. You could look at the core Klong language as what you suggest.
- Qem 2y agoOn Linux rlwrap is used to get the REPL working. Is possible to get the REPL working under PowerShell in a Windows box too?
- eismcc 2y agoI don’t use windows so not sure.
- jayavanth 2y agowhy are so many array programming alternatives to numpy/scipy popping up recently? Is there a fundamental flaw or showstopper in numpy?
- eismcc 2y agoNumpy is just the backend and KlongPy has a lot more application features than Numpy. You can see something like kdb+ as inspiration.
- tveita 2y agoIs the full rendered documentation available anywhere? https://github.com/briangu/klongpy/blob/main/docs/quick-start.md https://github.com/briangu/klongpy/blob/main/docs/quick-star... links to an "API Reference" and a "REPL Reference", but the links are broken.
- eismcc 2y agoNot yet. I want to make an online book.
