In our October meetup, we welcome Valentin Haenel to discuss the Numba project and llvmlite. Valentin works as a senior software engineer at Anaconda.
Numba is an open-source JIT compiler that translates the computationally intensive functions of your numerical programs and libraries from Python/NumPy to highly optimized machine code. Internally, Numba uses llvmlite, a lightweight Python binding for writing JIT compilers with LLVM.
We usually have a good mix of experienced developers and LLVM beginners. Depending on the presentation, we also see domain experts joining who arenβt otherwise exposed to LLVM. We aim for interactive sessions with many questions and discussions. There is always space for outside topics and discussions. If you have specific questions, please bring them.
If you want to join, please RSVP here: LLVM Social #30 - Numba/llvmlite with Valentin Haenel, Wed, Oct 23, 2024, 7:00 PM | Meetup
