Dear D programmers,
I am very new to D programming language. I just started to
learn it as an alternative to python since the latter sometimes
is too slow. My question is whether there some simple ways to
solve linear algebra problems in D programming language? E.g.
matrix multiplication, diagonalization, SVD decomposition? If
there is something, I would definitely stick to D programming
language in my projects.
PS I am not a proffesinal programmer and I am sorry if this
question has already been discussed.
Thaks in advance!
I have done some linear algebra in D. If you are comfortable
calling C functions, you can easily call into existing solutions,
because it is trivial to call into C from D. I use Gretl
http://gretl.sourceforge.net/ because it offers a convenient
interface to commonly used BLAS and LAPACK functionality. GSL is
another good choice https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/. This has
worked well for me because I am using D as a drop-in replacement
for C.
If you do not know C or otherwise want a D solution, there is
SciD https://github.com/kyllingstad/scid/wiki. I've never had a
reason to use it so I do not know how well it works.
