Designing code: Editing techniques
Today, I’d like to talk a bit about the code editor which is used to create and view executable data. Notice that I used the verb ‘designing‘ instead of ‘writing‘ code in the title. There’s a very simple reason for this: N2D doesn’t yet define a syntax for textual input of code, instead, there is [...]

As a child, I remember playing quite a lot in the sand by the coast in the summers. I don’t think I cared very much about sandboxes though, except maybe for growing stuff in. Anyway, that’s totally besides the point with regards to today’s topic, which is about N2D’s sandbox, used to test out a [...]

Demos explained: Echo words
Most development tutorials start out with an ‘Hello world‘ type of application. This one doesn’t. The issue I had was the fact that a neural network is inherently a responsive system, that is, everything it does is a reaction to input. So, I figured, to illustrate this better, I could show a simple echo application. [...]
