Where in the docs does it explain how to find, download and install libraries/packages?

[image] Buk: f(a) = ( (1/2)*(pi*a*i/r + 2r)cos(a), 1/2(pi*a*i/r + 2r)*sin(a) ) I’m as yet unfamiliar with “broadcasting”. With the dot I got: [image] I don’t understand why it goes eliptical, but maybe that is something to do with broadcasting. Time to take this subdiscussion into a new …

So, no command or api to query what is available; nor even what is already installed?

Perhaps this can be improved in the future. But please do read the documentation listed. There is a lot of terminology but it …

They both query the General registry as far as I know. JuliaHub.com is owned by Julia Computing. I believe Julia Observer is third party and mainly coded by @djsegal .
