Dear PDL folks, PDL 2.063_04 has just been released. Notable changes since 2.063_01:
* pthreads should now be available on BSD systems * Support for signed and unsigned versions of all integers up to 64-bit, and real and complex long double * qsortvec* now work with badvalues as documented * wfits now handles RICE compression * NiceSlice now works correctly with comments and strings * rmpeg added, rpic and wpic work with multi-image PNM files * xvals returns at least a double, avoiding problems with e.g. byte ndarrays Future plans, in something like intended order: * “loop fusion” techniques to maximise locality of computation, minimising data’s trips through the “straw” between CPU and main RAM * finish the independent C interface for making PDL usable from e.g. Python * use OpenCL or other means to also utilise GPUs if available The IRC channel (#pdl on irc.perl.org) is a great virtual place to come and ask questions, or just watch the GitHub messages flow by. As usual, please give the new PDL a try and report problems. Best regards, Ed
