Wasn't there recently something on HN about a programming language for science experiments? Anyone know what it was called again? It'd be interesting to compare the two languages.
- ebakshy 12y agoAFAIK there aren't any other languages implementing scientific experiments, although there was a recent article about a port of the PlanOut interpreter to Go [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8723536 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8723536] -- so maybe that's what you are thinking of? We have been doing a lot of recent development on the PlanOut language and interpreter itself, and hadn't really emphasized that part of PlanOut was first open-sourced. URX's ongoing port of Go prompted me to improve the documentation for the interpreter, and also open source parts of the React-based editor we use to develop PlanOut experiments at Facebook.
