So, are there out of the box libraries to estimate a zero inflated negative binomial regression model in guile? How about to create multi-faceted plots with < 1

So, are there out of the box libraries to estimate a zero inflated negative binomial regression model in guile? How about to create multi-faceted plots with < 10 lines of code?
I would LOVE to do my statsing with any lisp variant, but the reality is that R has a killer ecosystem of statistical and visualization packages. Python had an enormous uphill battle but now has a really great story to tell in part because it hitched itself to the rising fortunes of Bayesian stats.
Any discussion of languages has to include amount and maturity of libraries for the purposes at hand.
This PDF has some good content. But I feel a somewhat harsh response is warranted if your starting premise is positioning yourself against an existing solution that many individuals use.
- gumby 11y agoThere's RCL which is a lisp interface to R. https://common-lisp.net/project/rcl/ https://common-lisp.net/project/rcl/ A bit long in tooth but might get you what you want.
- peatmoss 11y agoCheers! Though my personal, someday dream, is to port R to Racket such that I can freely interop. It shall be called "Arket" and verily be googleable. If someone beats me to my nerdy, nerdy dream, so much the better.
