“Scalala is a numerical linear algebra library for Scala, supporting rich Matlab-like operators on vectors and matrices, and a library of numerical and plotting routines. Scalala takes it inspiration from numerical programming environments such as Matlab and R, that can easily express linear algebra as simple expressions involving matrices, vectors and scalars. However, general purpose programming with richer data structures in these environments ranges from slow to painful. Scalala is designed to marry the syntax of interactive numeric environments, the performance of dedicated linear algebra libraries, and the flexibility of general purpose programming in Scala.”
