Explore Julia and Its Language FundamentalsAbout This VideoA practical guide to help you use Julia to tackle problems concurrently and in a distributed environmentMaster the techniques you need to create blazingly fast programs with JuliaCovers control structures, functions, tasks, blocks, and I/O and advanced fundamentalsIn DetailJulia is an easy-to-read language invented by MIT. It uses a simple uncluttered syntax intended to make linear algebra, big data, and AI solutions easy to specify and quick to execute.This course begins with an overview where you will learn how to install and run Julia. As well as the basics, you will explore Primitive, Abstract and Composite types. This course will teach you variables, scope (local and global, static and dynamic), and constants. With this course, you will be able to carry out string operations and pattern matching. You will further learn to control structures, functions, tasks, and blocks.By the end of this course, you will have explored I/O and advanced fundamentals, by carrying out vector and matrix operations.The code bundle for this course is available at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Learning-Julia-1.0> Downloading the example code for this course: You can download the example code files for all Packt video courses you have purchased from your account at http://www.PacktPub.com.
