Workshop: Interactive numeric computing with Node.js and JavaScript
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
In this workshop, Athan Reines will first provide an overview of numeric computation in JavaScript, libraries currently available, and what makes these libraries competitive with and even superior to alternatives on other platforms. Next, he will guide attendees through a series of brief exercises to demonstrate use cases ranging from analytics to machine learning to exploratory data analysis and visualization. He will then show how to leverage Node and JavaScript to build feature rich numeric compute applications both at the command-line and in the browser. Finally, he will outline future steps and identify opportunities for community development of next-generation tools.
