Haskell Code

Here is some code that I've written in Haskell. These packages are available on Hackage.

• learn-physics
  A library of functions for vector calculus, calculation of electric field, electric flux, magnetic field, and other quantities in mechanics and electromagnetic theory.
• cyclotomic
  The cyclotomic numbers are a subset of the complex numbers that are represented exactly, enabling exact computations and equality comparisons. They contain the Gaussian rationals (complex numbers of the form p + q i with p and q rational), as well as all complex roots of unity. The cyclotomic numbers contain the square roots of all rational numbers. They contain the sine and cosine of all rational multiples of pi. The cyclotomic numbers form a field, being closed under addition, subtraction, mutiplication, and division.

Here is a paper from 2016 about Haskell and Quantum Mechanics:
