Hi, recently, i was interested to be able to integrate numerically ordinary differential equations (ODE) for a project about epidemiological simulation. I have no big needs and i can reimplement Runge-Kutta method (rk4 function and friends) in Smalltalk at the beginning. But if i want to be able t

I can tell you about Smallapack as author. First advantage: using a state of the art robust library LAPACK + BLAS is the core of Matlab/Octave/Scilab/R/etc... It is robust in terms of API stability, numerical stability, and number of bugs (try finding known ones). Second advantage: combine advant

Hi all! I'm currently planning on doing some work related to resolving partial differential equations (shallow water) in pharo. I'm seeing a couple of project for dealing with vectors, matrices and some other math things. http://www.squeaksource.com/DHBNumerical.html http://www.squeaksource.com/M
