[->] Nexsys

An equation solving program written in Rust 🦀

Nexsys (iNtuitive Equations, eXpressions, and SYStems) is inspired by Engineering Equation Solver (EES), which is a program intended for engineers working with thermal or fluids-heavy systems. This tool allows engineers to develop massive mathematical models of the systems they work with and produce optimized designs in less time than it might take to develop the same model in Python or Matlab.

The main drawback of EES is its closed-source nature and poor ability to integrate with non-Windows machines and other software, so with an interest in simulation and computer-aided engineering, I took it upon myself to fill the gap.

The nexsys-math Crate

This is the nexsys-math sub-crate, which is responsible for providing basic from-scratch implementations of useful calculus and linear-algrebra operations (e.g. matrix multiplication, partial derivatives, jacobian matrices).
