<h1>Numerical analysis in Javascript</h1>
The <a href="http://www.numericjs.com/">Numeric Javascript</a> library allows you to perform
sophisticated numerical computations in pure javascript in the browser and elsewhere.<br><br>

<h1>Workshop</h1>

The <a href="workshop.php">Workshop</a> is a Javascript console that can be used to experiment with
Numeric Javascript by writing a "Worksheet" of Javascript commands. This Worksheet can be saved and
shared simply by sharing a permanent link to the Worksheet.<br><br>

The Workshop also includes plotting facilities using the
<a href="http://code.google.com/p/flot/">Flot</a> plotting library.


<h1>Performance</h1>

Although Javascript does not reach the same performance as native programs, the Numeric Javascript
library is carefully tuned to obtain the best possible performance for a Javascript program. You
can compare the performance of Numeric, <a href="http://sylvester.jcoglan.com/">Sylvester</a> and
<a href="http://code.google.com/closure/">Google Closure</a>'s 
<a href="http://code.google.com/p/closure-library/source/browse/trunk/closure/goog/math/matrix.js">Matrix</a>
object using our <a href="benchmark.html">Benchmark</a>.


<h1>Correctness</h1>

Numeric Javascript contains a set of unit tests that are automatically run in several browsers. You can
view the <a href="report.html">report</a> that is automatically generated.
