Off-topic: I couldn't help noticing that there is such a recurrent pattern that under every NumPy-related topic, there are fervent disciples of Julia who prophecy that the end (of Python) is nigh and you should all be converting to Julia.
But why not use whatever suits your problem the best? I use both Python and Julia in my research, and sometimes R when I need some niche statistical packages. "My language is superior to your language" is such a self-limiting mindset.
- dklend122 6y agoIt wasn't too long ago that the reverse happened. People are excited about Julia, because frankly it's amazing and a breath of fresh air coming from python. Also, it's really now starting to pick up steam. Curious though, how are limited by using Julia? Any python or r package is a pycall/rcall away. Otherwise it's faster, more ergonomic and makes coding fun again
