FYI - there appears to be a library called numcl that was written to cover numpy's functionality. https://github.com/numcl/numclI%27ve yet to try it, but thought I'd pass along the link.Regards,Elliott Johnson -------- Original message --------From: Raymond Wiker rwiker@gmail.com Date: 4/11/23 3:53 AM (GMT-08:00) To: Discussion list for Common Lisp professionals pro@common-lisp.net Subject: Re: Numpy and Common Lisp? There’s cl-ana, which may be a useful substitute in some cases… or april, possibly.cl-anacliki.netaprilcliki.netIf you specifically want numpy, it may be possible to have Common Lisp talking to python.On 11 Apr 2023, at 08:41, Marco Antoniotti marco.antoniotti@unimib.it wrote:Hi MichaelI am all for it. But, as I said, I am an academic (and a cat).Should we (as in "a bunch of common lispers", most of whom with day jobs) want to do something like that, how would you want to proceed?

Here’s the API specification for NumPy: https://numpy.org/doc/stable/reference/index.html#referenceLooks rather intimidating. Less intimidating though, than doing the FFI dance, though.
