NAME¶

julia - high-level, high-performance dynamic programming language for technical computing

SYNOPSIS¶

julia [option] [program] [args..]

DESCRIPTION¶

Julia is a high-level, high-performance dynamic programming language for technical computing, with syntax that is familiar to users of other technical computing environments. It provides a sophisticated compiler, distributed parallel execution, numerical accuracy, and an extensive mathematical function library. The library, largely written in Julia itself, also integrates mature, best-of-breed C and Fortran libraries for linear algebra, random number generation, signal processing, and string processing. In addition, the Julia developer community is contributing a number of external packages through Julia's built-in package manager at a rapid pace. Julia programs are organized around multiple dispatch; by defining functions and overloading them for different combinations of argument types, which can also be user-defined. For a more in-depth discussion of the rationale and advantages of Julia over other systems, please see the online manual: http://docs.julialang.org/en/latest/manual/ If a Julia source file is given as a program (optionally followed by
arguments in args) Julia will execute the program and exit.
