BTW: you might want to add support for typed arrays. See: https://github.com/xenova/transformers.js/blob/8804c36591d11... This is really old, but added as part of the shape of the vector as well: https://github.com/nicolaspanel/numjs/blob/master/src/dtypes...

Thank you very much! That led me to a JS clone[0]. Python has amazing math libraries. I use numjs[1] for everything, which is a port of numpy. I frequently wish I had use of Python's libraries. 0: https://github.com/parmentf/random-weighted-choice 1: https://github.com/nicolaspanel/numjs

The first repo has one core contribitor who hasn't been active since June 2018. https://github.com/nicolaspanel/numjs/graphs/contributors I sincerely believe it is possible for JavaScript to be a viable language ecosystem, but there is dire need for cohesion, collaboration, and longevity. As it stands, there are so many potentially viable projects strewn across the NPM landscape like old, discarded toys. I'm not aware of an initiative, let alone ethos, in the JS community that comes anywhere close to something like NumFocus. https://numfocus.org/

JavaScript has plenty of libraries covering the basics. Here a few: https://github.com/nicolaspanel/numjs https://www.npmjs.com/package/fast-math https://smartbear.com/de/blog/2013/four-serious-math-librari... That's not the problem. The problem is mindshare and network effects. When analyzing why Python is used one way and JS another we're tempted to retroactively rationalize this with something fundamental about the language. There's nothing fundamental about it. It's just happenstance. Python was around longer as a general purpose script, and it filled that niche. JS is relatively new as a script outside the browser.

I couldn't really understand how the JS community is so vibrant in some areas and flocks to libraries every other day, but the python community gravitated around all the big data stuff Not saying it shouldn't, I just don't get the aberration given the computational resources available today since compute instances mitigate single event loop issues Is there a JS version of numpy and panda? edit: yes, there are https://github.com/nicolaspanel/numjs https://github.com/StratoDem/pandas-js
