        The (or ‘A’) new killer language, ir so I have heard.

        It neatly brings together a lot of optimisations (like template metaprogramming in C++ which brings optimisation and compiletime checks together, but is maniacly difficult to use In C++ IMO.) and seems easy to use after a quick check.

        We’ll see, primary logic usually doesn’t prevail in those matters.

              Also, it’s the GNU version of the ‘S’ language (kind of like Octave vis-à-vis MATLAB). They only say they’re largely compatible, as they ofc don’t own S/MATLAB, but it’s pretty much the same AFAIK, only that R is now much more popular than S.
