Hi
As the main proponent of the utility ‘irsabol’ I am partial to Julia (which is a Common Lisp in a drag :) ). IMHO Julia is doing many things right.
All the best

Hi Robert,
To add to the list of library propositions for numpy in Lisp, we can probably also have a look at the language Hylang that is a Lisp dialect that's embedded in Python.
