    Package manager for biologists and purpose made for data science makes me think of R. But if its true, i never knew you can write inline c++

    Most sane language designers stop at embedding C.

    C++ is really taking it up to 11.

    Purpose made for Data-science

    Uhhh… R?

    That, MATLAB, and Python are the only languages I know of used in that field, and it’s not MATLAB or Python lol. I don’t know anything about R tho

    Should’ve included:
    ridiculously good at plotting if you can figure out the correct syntaxes

      Also multiple systems included. the old base plotting from the 90s, lattice for really custom things, ggplot as the most humanely understandable and reasonable system for composing plots and great interfaces to plotly and d3.js

    It has to be Kepler, my terrible home grown interpreted language that has none of these features!

    JK it’s gotta be JavaScript

      Bruh, this looks cool af. Seriously has me wondering whether I should port my shit from SQLite to duckDB.

        I love duckDB, my usual workflow is:

        • initially read my data from whatever source (CSV, relational database somewhere, whatever)
        • write it to one or more parquet files in a directory
        • tell duckdb that the directory is my data source

        Then duckdb treats the directory just like a databese that you can build indexes on, and since they’re parquet files they’re hella small and have static typing. It was pretty fast and efficient before, and duckdb has really sped up my data wrangling and analysis a ton.

    Also my fav OP :)

    Rcpp is probably the best thing to ever exist.

    I reject tidyverse though

    Best IDE ever, help pages with references to statistics journal articles, and the most useful feature: pipe()

    The many oop systems makes me think perl.
