### [nalgebra]

![nalgebra](https://www.nalgebra.org/img/logo_nalgebra.svg)

[nalgebra] ([GitHub], [Discord]) by [Dimforge] is a general-purpose
linear-algebra library.

With its version 0.26, [nalgebra] replaced the use of [generic-arrays] by
regular Rust arrays using const-generics. See the [blog-post] to get all
the details! In particular, this results in significant benefits:

- Simpler generic programming with statically-sized vectors/matrices.
- Much simpler debugging: inspect the content of vectors/matrices more easily.
- Vectors and matrices with dimensions known at compile-time can be
constructed in a const-fn context.
