Tools for Physicists: A brief introduction to the Rust programming language

by Michael Distler (JGU)

Wednesday 26 Apr 2023, 14:15 → 16:15 Europe/Berlin

1395/00-135 - Conference Room III Back (Raumteil 00-135) (HIM-Bau 1395)

This is not a complete Rust course, of course, but it will address some of the modern features of the Rust programming language that are relevant to physicists, such as memory safety and especially its suitability for developing parallel programs. Some of the possibilities of Rust, such as functional programming, can also be found in other languages such as Python or C++, so that this lecture should also be relevant for listeners who do not (yet) want to switch to Rust.
