Fusion tutorial (WIP)

[mittelmark]

Dear all,

I started a Fusion tutorial which as well shows how you can use the C output via Swig to target languages like Lua, Perl, Octave, Tcl etc, so as well languages which are not directly supported by Fusion. Given is as well an example how to transpile Fusion's Typescript output to Lua.

Here is the project link: https://github.com/mittelmark/fusion-tutorial
and here the tutorial link https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/mittelmark/fusion-tutorial/blob/master/tutorial/tutorial.html

It is work in progress. I'll try to translate one of our network reconstruction algorithms to Fusion,

https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/18/4/1741

so making Matrix and Graph structures together with a little bit of statistics.

Let's see how that scales at the end.

Feel free to comment.

Hi Detlef,

Thank you for your tutorial! This is an interesting approach, especially chaining with Swig to target more languages.

I submitted mittelmark/fusion-tutorial#2 last week - mostly grammar/typos.

I released fut 3.2.14 last Sunday which mostly addresses your reports.

Fusion was originally created for low-level bitwise operations, such as chip emulation and encoding/decoding various file formats.
String operations and collections are a later addition and there might be some rough edges. In any case, let me know!

Hi Piotr,

Thanks for these fixes, I hope I got them properly merged.
Not sure how I can get these notifications about pull requests so that I see them earlier. Will again hunt in my settings.

I think there are currently enough features in the language to get things done. I have some ideas about missing values but that will be an other thread.
