Arraymancer VS cps

It is a small DSL written using macros at https://github.com/mratsim/Arraymancer/blob/master/src/array....

Nim has pretty great meta-programming capabilities and arraymancer employs some cool features like emitting cuda-kernels on the fly using standard templates depending on backend !

Nim has also a powerful deep learning library called Arraymancer. It's selling point is that you don't have to rewrite your code from research to production. It's used in various machine learning projects, but one recent one that caught my eye was https://github.com/amkrajewski/nimCSO "Composition Space Optimization"

It's worth noting that nim async/await transformation is fully implemented as a library in macros.

https://github.com/mratsim/Arraymancer 11. « Premature optimisation is the root of all evil », Donald Knuth, The art of computer Programming It would be quite useful that someone writes one with examples for all these recommendations and more ...

In particular for deep learning as bobsyourunkl already mentioned there is arraymancer on the one hand and also flambeau on the other. The latter is a Nim wrapper around libtorch (i.e. the PyTorch C++ backend). It is missing things (to be wrapped by adding a few lines) and has some rough edges, but if one needs to get stuff done, it's possible.

how are u compiling (optimization, custom compilation flags etc.?) In my case https://github.com/mratsim/Arraymancer big project compile under your 4.2s so or you have like 10k+ lines of codes with macros or you just pass some debug flags to compiler :D

We have both raw wrappers for BLAS:

https://github.com/andreaferretti/nimblas

as well as LAPACK:

https://github.com/andreaferretti/nimlapack

For an example, consider calling the least squares routine `dgelsd` in arraymancer:

https://github.com/mratsim/Arraymancer/blob/master/src/array...

wrapped up in a nicer user facing API.

Feel free to hop onto matrix, if you have more questions!

Sorry, I was in a hurry.

Or a neural network DSL or for a self-contained example, einsum:

There has been a more-or-less working CPS implementation for Nim for a few years now,

https://github.com/nim-works/cps

https://github.com/nim-works/cps/tree/master/docs

Nobody seems to care though, as it has gained no traction at all and it has been mostly ignored by the core team.

Ones that have not been mentioned so far:

nlvm is an unofficial LLVM backend: https://github.com/arnetheduck/nlvm

npeg lets you write PEGs inline in almost normal PEG notation: https://github.com/zevv/npeg

futhark provides for much more automatic C interop: https://github.com/PMunch/futhark

nimpy allows calling Python code from Nim and vice versa: https://github.com/yglukhov/nimpy

questionable provides a lot of syntax sugar surrounding Option/Result types: https://github.com/codex-storage/questionable

ratel is a framework for embedded programming: https://github.com/PMunch/ratel

cps allows arbitrary procedure rewriting to continuation passing style: https://github.com/nim-works/cps

chronos is an alternative async/await backend: https://github.com/status-im/nim-chronos

zero-functional fixes some inefficiencies when chaining list operations: https://github.com/zero-functional/zero-functional

owlkettle is a declarative macro-oriented library for GTK: https://github.com/can-lehmann/owlkettle

I think the CPS attempt in Nim could do this

https://github.com/nim-works/cps

* Goroutines are probably a lot more easier to use. Work is being done to make Nim even better in that area: https://github.com/nim-works/cps but don't expect it soonish.

* I feel like Go has less 'edge cases', but the Nim compiler is steadily getting more stable, especially consider it's not backed up by a major company!

* Metaprogramming is really powerful, but not beginner friendly. The documentation says use macros when necessary, but personally I don't think that really happens in practice.

The advantages by far outweigh the disadvantages, especially if you are looking for a clean Go alternative(except maaaaaaybeee web application).
