NMatrix¶ ↑
Description¶ ↑
NMatrix is an experimental linear algebra library for Ruby, written mostly in C. It can be used with or without SciRuby, but is part of the SciRuby project.
NMatrix was inspired by and based heavily upon NArray, by Masahiro Tanaka.

WARNING:¶ ↑
Please be aware that SciRuby and NMatrix are in PRE-ALPHA status. If you’re thinking of using SciRuby/NMatrix to write mission critical code, such as for driving a car or flying a space shuttle, you may wish to choose other software (for now).
