Tensorics is a java framework which uses a tensor as a central object. A tensor represents a set of values placed in an N-dimensional space. Wherever you are tempted to use maps of maps, a tensor might be a good choice ;-) Tensorics provides methods to create, transform and performing calculations with those tensors.

There is a newer version: 0.0.81
