Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Package feedback
I noticed there were many requests for implementations of special functions in SpecialFunctions.jl, but the authors seem quite hesitant to allow more functions. That's why I created FewSpecialFunctions.jl to fill in the gaps and add those functions. So far, I have only added a few functions to high precision and would like some feedback on the package. You can also make a PR to implement your own function.

Recommendations for equivalent of Excel's Goal Seek function
Roots.jl is probably the closest thing to what you want, for simple scalar-to-scalar functions.
- Looking for a simple equation of state to calculate the specific volume/density of gas/liquid methanol. I've found plenty of papers using the Helmholtz equation of state but nothing simpler. Are there any around?
