Do you guys have any resources for learning C++ and/or Fortran programming for physics?

• rust

  2,681 92,831 10.0 Rust

  Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

  

However, I would instead recommend learning a more modern, safer, C-like language: Rust. It prevents all sorts of concurrency and memory errors at compile time. Generally, it is much harder to shoot yourself in the foot (which is shockingly easy with C or C++). https://www.rust-lang.org/

• Numba

  124 9,432 9.9 Python

  NumPy aware dynamic Python compiler using LLVM

  

There's also another interesting JIT compiler for python called numba which is even easier to get set up and start using. Usually all you need to do is decorate your functions with an @njit and bam, massive speedups.

• InfluxDB

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• Cython

  79 8,891 9.8 Python

  The most widely used Python to C compiler

  

If you're already familiar with python and numpy, you might want to look into cython as an intermediate step before going straight into C. It allows you to compile most python code into a static binary that can be imported into a python script just like any other library. This allows you to get performance close to raw C without having to invest much effort, and has a lot of bells and whistles like "auto"-parallelization with openmp.
