For matrix math, there are several projects in existence. I know of Surge and its forked cousin Upsurge, and a quick googling reveals a few more.<br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Tue, Aug 9, 2016 at 14:22 Maximilian Hünenberger <<a href="mailto:swift-evolution@swift.org">swift-evolution@swift.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I think this is a great idea!<br>
<br>
As Chris said we should use GitHub or something else to start such a project. Does someone already has a Math library where we can discuss and commit?<br>
<br>
I'll soon push a small Math library to my GitHub repo and let you know.<br>
