The Futhark Programming Language ========== [](https://gitter.im/futhark-lang/Lobby?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge)[](https://github.com/diku-dk/futhark/actions)[](https://zenodo.org/badge/latestdoi/7960131) Futhark is a purely functional data-parallel programming language in the ML family. It can be compiled to typically very efficient parallel code, running on either a CPU or GPU. The language is developed at [DIKU](http://diku.dk) at the University of Copenhagen, originally as part of the [HIPERFIT centre](http://hiperfit.dk). It is quite stable and suitable for practical programming.
