I'm interested in writing some code that takes a Maxima expression and
compiles it into a function. The application that I have in mind is to
write numerical integrators for systems of odes.
What I have done is simple(-minded): I extract the listofvars from the
expression, subst gensyms in place, create a function which
mode_declares the variables to be flonums and then compile that
function using the Maxima compile command.
I wonder if someone has suggestions on how to improve this,
speed-wise. The expressions in question involve the 'elementary'
functions and their compositions, say.
