I am getting my hands dirty installing JULIA. After spending more than 4 hours, I have finally installed JULIA on my CentOS 32 bit OS.

The steps are as follows:

1) Install Github

2) Installing Dependencies

3) Install JULIA

5) Build JULIA using the make command.

Basic Steps:

yum install git

git clone git://github.com/JuliaLang/julia.git

Cd Julia/

Make –C deps getall

Su root

Yum install gcc-gfortran

yum -y install java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 libXp openmotif openmotif22 python.x86_64 numpy* ncurses-devel gcc gcc-c++ autoconf automake

yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools"

make

./julia
