• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Open Source C# Math Library?

Hi Martin,

Not sure if I ever found any, but what kind of math should it include for you? I mean the .NET framework has the basics, so I guess you are looking for thinks like matrix manipulations, etc. Or is that not the case?
 
Hi Arno,

Yes matrix manipulations, advanced calculus, vector resolving (trig functions) and most importantly for me, handling of complex numbers.

I have been looking at the IMSL C# Numerical Library, but at $1,175 for a nodelocked license it's a big ask for what is essentially just a math library...!

Cheers,

Martin
 
Hi Arno,

Thanks for that link - looks very interesting! Iridium in particular (although that appears to be the base for everything).

OT, but they also have a neural network toolbox available too - that could be interesting!

Cheers,

Martin
 
One possible alternative I have discovered is MatLAB. I never saw it as a serious option, but my 2008a release was delivered a couple of days ago and I have now installed it.

There are some major advances in OOP from r2007b, and with the possibility to compile to standalone exes and libraries, as well as generating C code (which from my quick testing will need some editing to work with C#), it could be an option.

I'm still looking through the changes. Will report back if I find anything interesting.

Cheers,

Martin
