...atform. I am collecting notes for a wiki entry I am planning to write about using this platform for software development if anybody else here is interested. My initial experiences have been promising for this platform. For example, I have been able to build CMake itself as well as build and test PLplot. However, one issue that is of concern is the builds are extremely slow on Wine compared to Linux. Here are some comparisons for components of CMake builds done in an initially empty build tree. Wine I. wine at raven> time wine cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" \ "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREF...

Hi, The department of economics at our university (Budapest) is planning a course on numerical methods in economics. They are trying to decide which software to use for that, and I would like to advocate R. The other alternative is Matlab. I have found comparisons in terms of computational time for matrix algebra, but I don't think that is relevant: the bottleneck for economists is usually
