• Show HN: Heynote – A Dedicated Scratchpad for Developers

• Julia 1.9 Highlights

  The flip side to this is that Julia is a very capable general purpose engineering calculator and simulator.

• How did you check your homework if it’s ungraded and there’s no answer key?

  Many answers can be checked numerically, even if only for a special case. There are also some sites that will solve certain types of problems, for example https://www.integral-calculator.com/. Graphing also sometimes helps, desmos.com. Source: 11 months ago
