Add-ins
In the
download
page you will find also
other packages. They are add-ins of different types:
- Adapters
Adapters
are Matrex function templates to let Matrex use other applications.
The
idea is to build functions in Matrex that call code of other
applications or exchange data with them.
This can be useful: - for a Matrex user to use libraries that are available only for the other application or to improve the calculation performance.
- for a Matlab, Scilab or Octave, R user to use Matrex as a graphical
front-end for these applications. Matrex can be preferable in this than spreadsheets, because it works with matrices and not with cells, in the same way as these applications do; and because is multithreaded.
- to use Matrex as a smart bridge among different applications.
- Libraries
Libraries
are packages of
additional function templates that are not general enough to be
included in the main function.jar file, but can be very useful in
specific areas.
A wrapper to the Jama
library has been
released.
- Script
languages
Jython
is included in Matrex as a substitute of java to write function
templates code.
Additional script languages can be added.
A
wrapper to JRuby has been released.
