GeometricAlgebra.jl
A simple, generic implementation for geometric (Clifford) algebras in Julia.
The aim of this project is to provide an interface for geometric algebra which is simple, well documented and easily maintainable. See also the more mature Grassmann.jl and Multivectors.jl packages for more advanced capability.
This code is very young and in rapid development.
