It is possible to do so, but it stands out in a way such that most people aren't doing it using direct language features unless necessary. If you have `strict` and `warnings` enabled, which is recommended, then the interpreter can give

PDL also has support for many of those distributions beyond the common ones. All the GSL ones in fact. Except Wishart didn't get a binding because that was just added to GSL in 2018. So thanks! I'll add the one line needed to bind

I would really like to do some scientific computing in Raku. It has crossed my mind that I can maintain both Perl5 and Raku ports of some of the library code I'm writing. I just haven't worked through the tooling.

Good ideas! a) A built-in way would be good. There is some work being explored in using OpenMP with Perl/PDL to get some of that. In the mean time, there is MCE which does distribute across processes and there are examples of using thi

I plan to improve that, but will need to figure out the design (perhaps with something from Eigen). There is < https://metacpan.org/pod/PDL::CCS >, but it is not a real full PDL ndarray and is actually a wrapper ar

Hi, PDL core dev here. Feel free to ask me anything about it. The last release wasn't in February, it was just last week! < https://metacpan.org/release/ETJ/PDL-2.050 >. I agree with many of the commenter

Yeah, I think it was. The only thing older was probably CTAN, but it didn't have the same structure. Other things from the Perl ecosystem that should be copied are: - CPAN Testers which automatically tests every package on multiple sys

Perl's CPAN has tooling for diffing versions through the use of MetaCPAN (a top-notch site which every language should try to emulate). For example, here is a diff of the URI distribution: https://metacpan.org/diff&#x2F
