Multidimensional array for Rust

Overview

The mdarray crate provides a multidimensional array for Rust. Its main target is for numeric types, however generic types are supported as well. The purpose is to provide a generic container type that is simple and flexible to use, with interworking to other crates for e.g. BLAS/LAPACK functionality.

Here are the main features of mdarray:

• Dense array type, where the rank and element order is known at compile time.
• Static array type, where the rank, shape and element order is known at compile time.
• Column-major and row-major element order.
• Subarrays (views) can be created with arbitrary shapes and strides.
• Standard Rust mechanisms are used for e.g. slices, indexing and iteration.

The design is inspired from the Rust ndarray and nalgebra crates, the proposed C++ mdspan/mdarray types and multidimensional arrays in Julia and Matlab.

Note that this crate requires nightly Rust toolchain.
