Python Implementation #3

Closed Dadatata-JZ closed 4 years ago

Dadatata-JZ commented 4 years ago

The new algo looks really promising. Is it possible to be implemented with python? I saw many pre-required c++ libs. Is there any plan to make it work? Or it would be theoretically very HARD. Thanks

Thank you!

We have no plan to provide a python implementation. I recommend you call the binary from python. See the instructions so that it will work with all the corresponding scripts provided by Laurens van der Maarten.

The only drawback is that the input and output parameters are passed via the file system.

Alternatively, we can provide the interface and a shared library that can be called from python or any language that has a foreign function calling capability. We will need (your?) help for that.
