  • C# In-Depth: Harness the Features of C# to Power Your Scientific Computing Projects
    The C# language has been used quite successfully in many kinds of projects, including Web, database, GUI, and more. One of the last frontiers for the application of C# code may well be scientific computing. But can C# measure up to the likes of FORTRAN and C++ for scientific and mathematical projects?In this article, the author answers that question by looking at the .NET common language runtime to determine how the JIT compiler, Microsoft intermediate language, and the garbage collector affect performance. He also considers C# data types, including arrays and matrices, along with other language features that play an important role in scientific computing applications.
