| rickyvic, do you know of any good resources for learning julia? I do most of my work in python and drop down to C++ for performance, but would love to add another language if possible; julia does look interesting |

The risk that I see is that it might die and you are left with a dead language in your toolbox.
I started learning it but I am now refocusing on learning C well, so no time. By the way C interop with julia is easy.
If you type julialang a lot comes out from the language main website too. Should be easy to get started.

| gotcha, yeah I think I would just learn it as an interesting new tool, so wouldn't matter too much if its usage died off. I'll check out some resources |

| Why not just use R? R came from S and Scheme (lisp family) it has everything you would want anonymous functions, closure etc. |

R is slow and cannot be used in real time. It is efficient at doing vectorized stuff but not so much at looping.
I use it extensively although it is not the solution to our problem.
I find MATLAB faster at pretty much everything and it can be deployed in production better. |
