The post says Julia is not good for general purpose programming. I think it is good for that, it's just that it does not have as many packages as Python, that's all. I will offer one reason, Julia syntax is actually very much like Python's in many respects. So how can Python be good for general purpose programming but Julia not? So if the sentence is more like, Julia doesn't have as many packages for general programming then I think it's more precise
- jph00 8y agoThat sounds totally fair. I haven't used Julia for a couple of years so my comments on it are dated and not well informed. Everyone I know that uses Julia nowadays loves it.
