Session
GR is a plotting package for creating two- and three-dimensional graphics in Julia that provides basic MATLAB-like plotting functions for visualizing static or dynamic data. In this talk, the most important new features are presented, such as a new meta layer that allows the integration of GR in browser environments and GUI toolkits, or improved output functions for drawing paths and texts to make publication-quality plots.
