## 🚀 **Free Scientific Software for Engineers & Scientists**

[![Join the chat at https://gitter.im/nelson-numerical-software/Lobby](https://badges.gitter.im/nelson-numerical-software/Lobby.svg)](https://gitter.im/nelson-numerical-software/Lobby?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge)
Nelson is a powerful, open-source numerical computational language, developed to provide a comprehensive and intuitive environment for engineers, scientists, and students. With over 1,200 built-in functions, Nelson supports a wide range of tasks, from basic algebra to advanced numerical simulations.

## [Free](FAQ_LICENSE.md) Scientific Software Package
Originally inspired by languages like MATLAB© and GNU Octave, Nelson offers users a lightweight yet feature-rich experience. It is designed to be easy to learn and use, with an emphasis on performance and flexibility.

The aim of Nelson is providing a powerful open computing environment for engineering and scientific applications using modern C/C++ libraries (Boost, Eigen, FFTW, ...) and others state of art numerical libraries.
### Key Features:

It has sophisticated data structures (including cell, struct, linear systems...), an interpreter and a high level programming language.
- Flexible and modular system for custom data types
- Supports data type overloading
- Extensive support for scientific computations

Nelson has been developed to be an open/modular system where an user can define these own data types and operations on these data types by using overload.
