dualnum - generalized (hyper) dual numbers in python

Using dual numbers, you can compute exact derivatives of functions without writing analytical derivatives or using numeric differentiation.

Installation

You can install dualnum from pypi using pip:

` pip install dualnum `

Build from source

To build the code from source, you need the rust compiler and maturin. You can then install the latest master directly from github:

` pip install git+https://github.com/itt-ustutt/dualnum `
