Digging deeper into the standard library

The standard library is written in Julia and is comprised of a very broad range of functionalities: from regular expressions, working with dates and times, a package manager, internationalization and Unicode, linear algebra, complex numbers, specialized mathematical functions, statistics, I/O and networking, Fast Fourier Transformations (FFT), and parallel computing, to macros, and reflection. Julia provides a firm and broad foundation for numerical computing and data science (for example, much of what NumPy has to offer is provided). Despite being targeted at numerical computing and data science, Julia aims to be a general-purpose programming language.

The source code of the standard library can be found in the share\julia\base and share\julia\stdlib subfolders of Julia's root installation folder. Coding in Julia leads almost naturally to this source code, for example, when viewing all the methods of a particular function with methods(), or...

Ivo Balbaert

Ivo Balbaert is a lecturer in web programming and databases at CVO Antwerpen, a community college in Belgium. He received a PhD in applied physics from the University of Antwerp in 1986. He worked for 20 years in the software industry as a developer and consultant in several companies, and for 10 years as project manager at the University Hospital of Antwerp. From 2000 onwards, he switched to partly teaching and partly developing software (at KHM Mechelen, CVO Antwerpen). He also wrote an introductory book in Dutch about developing in Ruby and Rails, Programmeren met Ruby en Rails, published by Van Duuren Media. In 2012, he authored a book on the Go programming language, The Way to Go, published by iUniverse. He has written a number of introductory books for new programming languages, notably Dart, Julia, Rust, and Red, all published by Packt.
