Re: [Blitz-support] Determining tensor indices at runtime

[Patrik J. <co...@fa...>]

Hi Karim,

AFAIK numpy is mostly written as a C extension, so maybe it would be
possible to use that library and integrate support for it into your
language? I have never looked at the numpy code, so I have no idea how
hard that would be though.

The only C library I can think of is BLAS. I guess it depends on what
operations you need.

cheers,
