The Rust language
Leading up to the summer program, we’re hosting a special series of 18 webinars called « Gray Scott Thursdays » focus on Unit tests, CPU & GPU Architecture, Computing precision, Memory allocation, CPU & GPU computing with Modern C++, Rust, Fortran, Python and Sycl, also EVE and CUDA…
These weekly sessions will:
- Introduce key topics from the courses
- Give you an update of the most known languages and libraries
- Develop your skills and give you the chance to meet our incredible professors

Description
The offer of programming languages for computing may be huge on a quick overview. But when we are a bit more demanding on it (generalist language in term of hardware and kind of applications, programs relativelly simple to optimise, which good scalability on big project…) we finaly found a place which is traditionnally the world of C++. Nowadays, Rust tries to change this established order. In this presentation, we will see how Rust innovates compare to its ancestor, and why this language could pretend to replace C++ on computing applications.
