@profdemarco --- sure; and they're still not faster than their Scala counterparts.
Everyone knows, of course, that these benchmarks don't tell the whole story. However, it's ludicrous to assert that providing no evidence is better than providing a array of microbenchmarks across a variety of different…
Also, Julia has no business as a systems language either. I think it's a more general language comparison.
Except that Paul Phillips has stated many times that he still programs routinely in Scala and, despite its flaws, considers it to currently be the best option. His arguments about what's wrong with Scala are compelling,…
Except that it isn't faster at runtime (http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/u32q/benchmark.php?t...).
