Dear all, I have submitted a gsoc project called SciSmalltalk. This is a new Smalltalk project, similar to existing scientific libraries like NumPy, SciPy for Python or SciRuby for Ruby. SciSmalltalk already provide basic functionalities under MIT licence: complex and quaternions extensions, random number generator, fuzzy algorithms, LAPACK linear algebra package, Didier Besset's numerical methods, ... We want to extend SciSmalltalk to solve ODE (Ordinary Differential Equations). I you are a gsoc mentors, I would like to encourage you to give your vote to this project ! I believe this really important if we want to offer new alternatives for people who want to made science, mathematics, statistics and big data with Smalltalk ! The student for this project is very capable, because she is a mathematician student. We definitively need to support girls involvement in Smalltalk development and computer science ! Thank you.
