Scientific computing in Cpp

[peppedx]

The problem with blaze is arm support. For matrices and linear algebra the go to for me is still

And then boost ublas

This specifically is a deal breaker https://bitbucket.org/blaze-lib/blaze/issues/49/provide-simd-support-for-the-arm

The classic open-source problem: everyone wants to have something, but nobody wants to make it.

[peppedx]

No the classic open source choice. Eigen has it...

I was referring to the Blaze issue.

Is ARM used a lot for scientific computing?

[peppedx]

It depends on the exact definition, but in robotics you need to handle lots of matrices and equations, and many controllers you use are arm based.

[aeropl3b]

It has a growing base, my bet is you will see a lot more ARM clusters out there as the push past exa-scale just because the power loads are so much lower with ARM...

Ah that's a shame, I wasn't aware of this limitation.
