Row for Rust-AD in Table of AD Examples

Open barak opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

We are maintaining a table of AD examples in a variety of languages. There are five example programs, with varying levels of dynamic behaviour and amounts of nesting of AD operators. This has a number of uses. One is benchmarking, but more interestingly, it can be used as a bit of a regression test, it can help chase down rough corners of both AD APIs and AD implementations, and it can be used to showcase some of the power of AD, and some of the power of various languages.

We're hoping to fill out more rows, with more languages. Rust and this AD packages would make a nice addition, so I'm hoping someone here will take up the mantle. The example programs are already translated into a bunch of languages, including SML, OCAML, and Haskell, so translating into Rust should be reasonably mechanical.

I know this isn't strictly an issue with this repo in particular, but I figured this was the best place to reach out.
