Read More3 languages changing data science
Julia The Julia language, first released in 2012, was created specifically for data scientists. Its creators wanted to have a language as easy to work with as Python, but as fast as C or Fortran, and without having to work in more than one language at a time for the best results. Julia works its […]
Read MoreMicrosoft .NET 9 previews C#, runtime, SDK improvements
For the .NET runtime, Microsoft introduces experimental support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE), a SIMD instruction set for ARM64 CPUs. Also for the runtime, a compiler optimization called a “strength reduction” has been introduced for loops. With this capability, the loop operation is replaced with a faster, logically equivalent operation, according to release notes. […]
