Package Description
C C is a general-purpose, high-level language that was originally developed by Dennis M. Ritchie to develop the UNIX operating system at Bell Labs.
C++ C++ is a general-purpose programming language. It has imperative, object-oriented and generic programming features, while also providing facilities for low-level memory manipulation.
C-Sharp C# is a multi-paradigm programming language encompassing strong typing, imperative, declarative, functional, generic, object-oriented (class-based), and component-oriented programming. Originally created by Microsoft.
CUDA CUDA is a parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) model created by Nvidia.
Fortran Fortran is a general-purpose, imperative programming language that is especially suited to numeric computation and scientific computing.
JAVA Java is a high-level programming language originally developed by Sun Microsystems and released in 1995.
OpenMP OpenMP is an implementation of multithreading, a method of parallelizing whereby a master thread (a series of instructions executed consecutively) forks a specified number of slave threads and the system divides a task among them.
OpenMPI MPI stands for the Message Passing Interface. MPI is a standardized API typically used for parallel and/or distributed computing.
Perl Perl is an interpreted language useful for rapid code development and multi-purpose programming.
Python Python is an interpreted language useful for rapid code development and distributed computing.
R R is a programming language and software environment for statistical analysis, graphics representation and reporting.
