BLAS bindings and high-level wrapper library
Joe Groff has implemented a BLAS binding in Factor. This is really cool stuff, and should enable some neat applications which require high-performance linear algebra. Joe writes,
The code is now in our git repository.
One day, Factor's compiler will generate such incomprehensibly fast
code for math.vectors and math.matrices that nobody will even consider
using C or Fortran ever again. In the meantime, you can now call out
to everyone's favorite Fortran fast-math library through a few
hopefully easy-to-use vocabs--check out math.blas.vectors,
math.blas.matrices, and, for purists, math.blas.cblas.
The code is now in our git repository.
