Introduction to Linear Algebra for Clojurians


Details
This online free workshop is part of the re:Clojure 2021 series of pre-conference workshops.
https://www.reclojure.org/#workshops
In order to operate mathematics on collections of numbers, the easiest solution is to use for-loop. I assumed it was the fastest way until I discovered Neanderthal, a linear algebra built for Clojure. This workshop introduces the most basic linear algebra concepts so that you can also enjoy Neanderthal. My aim will be to show you the underlying intuition so that these squares of numbers and formulas won't scare you when you read them.
Aboud David Pham:
I am an applied mathematician and love Clojure, and this workshop allows me to finally give back to the community.
Assumed knowledge: Clojure
Length: 90min
