Rational Discovery provides computational modeling, combinatorial
|
||||
library design and custom software development services to the
|
||||
pharmaceutical, biotech and chemical industries. We do a substantial
|
||||
amount of internal research to develop new approaches for applying
|
||||
machine-learning techniques to solve chemical problems. Because we're a
|
||||
small organization and chemistry is a large and complex field, it is
|
||||
essential that we be able to quickly and easily prototype and test new
|
||||
algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>For our internal software, we implement core data structures in C
|
||||
and expose them to Python using Boost.Python. Algorithm development is
|
||||
done in Python and then translated to C if required (often it's not).
|
||||
This hybrid development approach not only greatly increases our
|
||||
productivity, but it also allows "non-developers" (people without C
|
||||
experience) to take part in method development. Learning C is a
|
||||
daunting task, but "Python fits your brain." (Thanks to Bruce Eckel for
|
||||
the quote.)</p>
