About AMPL is a powerful and intuitive modeling language designed to represent and solve complex optimization problems. It enables users to formulate mathematical models in a syntax that closely mirrors algebraic notation, facilitating a clear and concise representation of variables, objectives, and constraints. AMPL supports a wide range of problem types, including linear programming, nonlinear programming, mixed-integer programming, and more. One of its key strengths is the ability to separate models and data, allowing for flexibility and scalability in handling large-scale problems. The platform offers seamless integration with numerous solvers, both commercial and open-source, providing users with the flexibility to choose the most appropriate solver for their specific needs. AMPL is available across multiple operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux, and offers various licensing options.	About APL is an array-oriented programming language that will change the way you think about problems and data. With a powerful, concise syntax, it lets you develop shorter programs that enable you to think more about the problem you're trying to solve than how to express it to a computer.	About The core of extensible programming is defining functions. Python allows mandatory and optional arguments, keyword arguments, and even arbitrary argument lists. Whether you're new to programming or an experienced developer, it's easy to learn and use Python. Python can be easy to pick up whether you're a first-time programmer or you're experienced with other languages. The following pages are a useful first step to get on your way to writing programs with Python! The community hosts conferences and meetups to collaborate on code, and much more. Python's documentation will help you along the way, and the mailing lists will keep you in touch. The Python Package Index (PyPI) hosts thousands of third-party modules for Python. Both Python's standard library and the community-contributed modules allow for endless possibilities.	About Refraction is a code-generation tool for developers. It uses AI to generate code for you. You can use it to generate unit tests, documentation, refactor code, and more. Generate code using AI in 34 languages — Assembly, C#, C++, CoffeeScript, CSS, Dart, Elixir, Erlang, Go, GraphQL, Groovy, Haskell, HTML, Java, JavaScript, Kotlin, LaTeX, Less, Lua, MatLab, Objective-C, OCaml, Perl, PHP, Python, R Lang, Ruby, Rust, Sass / SCSS, Scala, Shell, SQL, Swift, and TypeScript. Join thousands of developers around the world using Refraction to generate documentation, create unit tests, refactor code, and more using AI. Use the power of AI to automate the tedious parts of software development like testing, documentation, and refactoring, so you can focus on what matters. Refactor, optimize, fix and style-check your code. Generate unit tests for your code with various test frameworks. Explain the purpose of your code to make it easier to understand.
