merge with SpecialFunctions? #4

Open stevengj opened 8 years ago

stevengj commented 8 years ago

Would be nice to have a catch-all SpecialFunctions package to put (ideally pure Julia) special functions in, maybe this package could be a start? Just noticed that https://github.com/nolta/SpecialFunctions.jl already exists, maybe this could be merged?

giordano commented 7 years ago

This could be now merged into https://github.com/JuliaMath/SpecialFunctions.jl

djsegal commented 7 years ago

Any word on this?

Is this project going to be sunset in favor of Special Functions?

Datseris commented 6 years ago

SpecialFunctions has this in require:

Compat 0.59.0
BinaryProvider 0.3
BinDeps

Elliptic on the other hand has absolutely nothing. I vote for elliptic to stay separated.

EDIT: I am also putting Elliptic as a dependency on DynamicalBilliards since I need elliptic integrals and this package offers by far the most lightweight solution.

juliohm commented 7 months ago

I also agree that Elliptic.jl should be a separate lightweight package.

Loving to see native Julia packages such as Bessels.jl and Elliptic.jl take place of external dependencies.
