E Julia

Introduction

E Julia is a powerful programming language designed for scientific and numerical computing. It is a combination of the Julia programming language and the Elixir programming language, both of which are designed to make coding simple and efficient. E Julia takes the best features of these two languages and combines them to create a powerful programming experience.

Features

Fast Performance

E Julia is designed for speed. It is faster than many other programming languages, thanks to the use of the LLVM Compiler. This makes E Julia a great choice for scientific and numerical computing where speed is critical.

Distributed Computing

E Julia is designed for distributed computing, thanks to its use of the OTP (Open Telecom Platform) from Elixir. This allows developers to create powerful distributed systems that can scale to meet any demands.

Easy Parallel Computing

E Julia makes parallel computing easy. Its built-in constructs for parallel programming make it simple to take advantage of multi-core CPUs and distributed computing environments.

Interoperability

E Julia is highly interoperable with other programming languages. You can easily call functions written in C, Python, and other languages from E Julia, and vice versa.

Getting Started

To get started with E Julia, you will need to install the Elixir programming language first. Once you have Elixir installed, you can install E Julia using the following command:

mix archive.install hex ejulia

After installation, you can run the E Julia REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) using the following command:

iex -S mix

Example Code

Here is an example of how to use E Julia to calculate the Fibonacci sequence:

defmodule Fibonacci do
  def fib(n) when n <= 2, do: 1
  def fib(n) do
    fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)
  end
end

for n <- 1..10 do
  IO.puts "fib(#{n}) = #{Fibonacci.fib(n)}"
end

Conclusion

E Julia is a powerful programming language that combines the best features of Julia and Elixir. It is fast, scalable, and easy to use. If you are looking for a new programming language to try for scientific and numerical computing, E Julia is definitely worth considering.
