Julia¶

Julia is a high-level, high-performance dynamic programming language for technical computing. It has syntax that is familiar to users of many other technical computing environments. Designed at MIT to tackle large-scale partial-differential equation simulation and distributed linear algebra, Julia features a robust ecosystem of tools for optimization, statistics, parallel programming, and data visualization. Julia is actively developed by teams at MIT and in industry, along with hundreds of domain-expert scientists and programmers from around the world.
