Frustrations and Fixes for Julia Series #

• Cumbersome globals, bug-inducing as well (Ricatti solver issue)
• Terrible pipe operator
• weird choice of having map take function first then data, even though map is a data function itself. This causes issues with the pipe operator idea as well.
• Column-major vs row-major
• Need good internet for adding packages (can’t use it effectively when outside of town)
• Poor but understandable reshaping of vectors of vectors into matrices (especially for multidimensional arrays)
• Unnamed vectors, no annotations possible
• returning multiple values from map in consistent way.
• No pattern matching (data diffusion, exit condition for value comp only using if)
