From: Alexander Jesner Date: 2010-03-02T23:46:36+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:28420] [Bug #2834] Matrix/Vector should be rewritten in C to improve speed Bug #2834: Matrix/Vector should be rewritten in C to improve speed http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/2834 Author: Alexander Jesner Status: Open, Priority: Normal ruby -v: 1.9 The Matrix and Vector classes should be rewritten in C code so that they perform faster. Maybe it is possible to use existing libraries (eg: "boost" -- http://www.boost.org/) and build some wrappers? Integrating more (and faster) mathematical functions would help spreading Ruby in the world of numerics. (See SciPy, NumPy) ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
