Julia

Welcome to the Julia programming language, a flexible dynamic language that is appropriate for scientific and numerical computing. Though not immediately intuitive, it is capable of performance on par with most C programs. Building upon mathematical programming languages, Julia is capable of dynamic program similar to Python or Perl.

To work with Julia on Palmetto 2, you must first install it by following the Julia download instructions. Please make sure you are looking at the Linux instructions, regardless of the operating system of your own computer.

Once installed in either your home or project directory, you can launch Julia simply by typing julia into the command prompt.

To run Julia in batch mode, you must generate a Julia script (a .jl file) and a batch file. For examples on how to code in Julia, please refer to the official Julia docs.
