Code for Thought

Where goest thou, Julia - Part 2

RSE Season 1 Episode 8

In this episode we continue our journey into the Julia programming language and dive a little deeper into some aspects of Julia. For that reason I met with 2 engineers: Jarvis Frost from Imperial College and Lyndon White from InveniaLabs. Both wrote a lot of Julia code and we discuss some of the projects they have worked on.

The projects in question:
Jarvis' project example: Polaron Mobility

Differentiation with Julia
- https://github.com/JuliaDiff

Lyndon's project: NamedDims
