[julia-users] Re: Custom ranges

If you want to reap the benefits of the UnitRange, such as a constant sized representation regardless of collection size, then you can define your own type that satisfies the iterator interface. This is the most flexible option and an explanation can be found in http://docs.julialang.org/en/releas

[julia-users] Re: ANN: VegaLite.jl

Thank you all for your encouraging interest ! Randy, sorry if you were working on VegaLite too. I am totally open on looking into a common approach with Vega.jl if it makes sense. The question is I think: should the user chose the plotting grammar from a single package by setting a parameter (

[julia-users] Re: QML (Qt5) binding for Julia (GSOC?)

This could be either a missing Qt package, or the version is not recent enough. I don't use any recent QML commands, so it's safe to use QtQuick 2.0 and Controls and Layouts version 1.0. I have updated the main.qml in the repo. If you pass just QString("main.qml") as argument to QQmlApplication

[julia-users] Re: suppress deprecation warnings on all workers? (julia 0.4.3)

Nevermind. It was right there. For anyone reading this later, what I was looking for was: addprocs(num_procs, exeflags="--depwarn=no") (However, if there is a way to set depwarn=no in the code, that would still be valuable.) Thanks. Ryan On Wednesday, March 16, 2016 at 9:52:47 AM UTC-4

[julia-users] Re: Google SoC '16: Native Julia solvers for ordinary differential equations, Julia|Quantum>, and Native Julia implementation of Holonomic Functions

Taking a quick look at the paper you linked makes big use of symbolic computing algorithms to compute things like a Groebner basis. To get the infrastructure for what's proposed you would need a whole symbolic computing library, which is why they used Mathematica. I think implementing a fast

[julia-users] how to write a julia rand conformant randfloat() with exponent range given

I am not that familiar with rand stuff, and I'd like to get this right. The result should play well with other rand functions and give n ldexp(randSignficand, randExponent) values where the range for the significand and the exponent are specifiable. Thanks for any guidance.

[julia-users] Re: how to write a julia rand conformant randfloat() with exponent range given

So far, I have: import Base:ldexp @vectorize_2arg Any ldexp function randfloat{T<:AbstractFloat}(sigRange::FloatRange{T},expRange::UnitRange{Int},n::Int) s = rand(sigRange,n) e = rand(expRange,n) ldexp(s,e) end On Saturday, March 19, 2

Hey Morten, This looks like an interesting idea. Is (a) doable in three months? It might be tricky, especially with the current state of Julia's web tooling. I recommend taking a look over the Docile and Lexicon packages – Michael Hatherly has made really great progress with some of these ideas,

Re: [julia-users] Where to publish numerical work using julia

I think "not scientifically novel" is probably not the right choice of words: engineering is "science", and I would include software engineering in this. If it's not novel on the software engineering side, and not novel on the underlying algorithm, then what's the point of publishing a paper?
