You can load PolyMath 1.0.2 into a fresh Pharo 8.0 image with:

Metacello new
        repository: 'github://PolyMathOrg/PolyMath:v1.0.2';
        baseline: 'PolyMath';
        load

and the latest development version of PolyMath:

Metacello new
        repository: 'github://PolyMathOrg/PolyMath';
        baseline: 'PolyMath';
        load

We have 816 green tests ! At the moment, all the development happens in the master branch (we are using trunk-based development).

PolyMath is a Pharo project, similar to existing scientific libraries like NumPy, SciPy for Python or SciRuby for Ruby. PolyMath already provides the following basic functionalities:

• complex and quaternions extensions,
• random number generators,
• fuzzy algorithms,
• automatic differentiation,
• KDE-trees,
• Numerical methods,
• Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) solvers.

The authoritative book on PolyMath is available online: https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/PolyMath-book

Some documentation (work in progress) is available on the Wiki: https://github.com/PolyMathOrg/PolyMath/wiki

Natalia wrote some explanation about benchmarking PolyMath in the Pharo For Enterprise Book: https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/PharoForTheEnterprise-english/blob/ae40e7ab6f7651f6e7c271869eb1efc4e531e774/ComparingSolutions/ComparingSolutions.pier

To add PolyMath to your baseline just add this:

    spec
    	baseline: 'PolyMath'
    	with: [ spec repository: 'github://PolyMathOrg/PolyMath:master/src' ]
