Introduction
============
JITc (Just In Time compilation) is a way of compiling some part of code while a program is executed. The objective is to
obtain faster overall code execution despite the overhead added by the compilation.

.. note::
   For the moment, only Numba is described here but there is many fishes in the ocean ;)
